That doesn't make any sense. What $30,000 Ford has forged everything in it? And why would any company do that (and increase the production costs of their cars)...when 90% of their customers won't change a thing?

It's not my intent to argue with you in here...I really just want to hear from a professional, what he thinks of the hypereutectic pistons...but those comments were a little out in left-field, I had to reply.


i can't wait to see what happens with these engines from a modification standpoint. to clarify - the LSA in a non-luxury car
