Could that have just been an accidental error on her part? You would assume that would have been proofread prior to posting.

She could have been golfing while writing that and hence she thought about the "eight forged heads" in her golf bag. #shithappens

Yeah, that's a very valid point there.

She is definitely a female. In sexuality at least.

BTW, found this on Google Images. I take no credit.

I let LS1tech out of my sight for such a short while and I come back to this? "Piston heads"

Better tech writers needed, indeed!. But then again, this isn't about anything concerning tech at all unfortunately.


"Aubernon’s expert knowledge of all things Ford trucks has also made her a mainstay as one of the most prolific writers on Ford Truck Enthusiasts and F-150 Online".


Sorry, but anyone who uses the term "piston heads" is hardly an expert of this particular subject matter.


The guy is probably selling the forged pistons (heads) because he got a SBE 4.8 and a cheap turbo and realized he didn't need or want them anymore.

Possible entry for next week: "For sale, a gently used flux capacitor from a 1978 Delorean. MAKE OFFER! Motivated seller!!!"

I remember joking around about 13 years ago about exhaust fluid and now it exists lol..... One of the dudes at the local O'Reilly's actually bought a bunch of bottles of blinker fluid on Amazon and had them positioned at each register like one of those pine tree air freshener type impulse purchases would be displayed.

Gotta love this place... yet another catawampus article! Front page calling a sleeved LT block "a custom sleeved big block".

Then you have a tuner running a boosted car out to 12.6:1 A/F, gotta love it.

Bump this back up... I'm getting credit for this build and it not mine Chevy S-10 Xtreme with 2,000 HP Lives up to Its Name I have my own build but as much as I want this to also be my truck it's not! And as we can see from LS1 Tech member @LLLosingit and his Chevy S-10 build, the sky on these pickups is truly the limit.
