you know what was I thinking,why did I even take it to the shop,all the Ford tech's are right here in this forum. I am not being a wise guy or smart-alic but when a Ford tech at a Ford dealership tells me a piston (a hyper-pathetic one at that) goes bad I am going to tend to believe him,when a speed shop tells me the pistons are crap I am going to believe them,when a piston in a stock 2000 GT goes bad after 20k miles no one can tell me that piston is not crap,when every Ford publication I read says be careful with the glass-jawed pistons I am going to believe them. Are there cars out there going fast with a stock bottom end......of course there are,are most of those guys running their own speed shops or know someone that is you bet there is,gents you can say what you want,just as I can,I know what I seen at the dealership when they took the motor apart,and showed me what the piece of crap looked like,no one is going to tell me about bad information when I seen it with my own eyes,give that one up and do not go there with this one,I am easy to get along with but do not tell me what I did not see with my own eyes.
Now there are fast guys out there with mod motors like Lidio,Paul Svnicki,Barry Shephard,and John Mihovetz,and JR Granatelli that are running incredible times with the mod motr,I like the mod motor if I did not I would not be paying.........LOL never mind will not reveal that..........but I do not like the pistons bottom line
