That's not necessarily the cause of the problem. It COULD be a contributing factor but people have had #7 fail with aftermarket intakes too.Originally Posted by STUNNA

The fix may be but the problem is not. Both Jay (ramair2002) and I both had #7 pistons go south. If I'm correct, the 5.3 is the only one with an advertised issue. Or does anyone know of someone with a 4.8 or 6.0 with the same issue?Is this a joke from a Ford forum?
A forged #7 piston only covers up the problem. If you could find why #7 is detonating, that would be the way to go. Of course, a forged piston may be strong enough to handle the existing problem...

Does the LSX block have this issue.
99RCSB Broke because I wasted thousands and thousands of dollars on my truck.
Ill be first in line for a forged transmission.
cant the tuner just work his majic on his laptop to #7 injector to throw more/less fuel?iam very confused here.is this only when running n20 or f/i???
Are there really regular visitors to this site that have never heard of the ole number seven issue?
Anyone wants to call me out for making too many posts needs to realize I read all new posts (there's an ap for that LOL) and comment when it helps someone, makes me laugh, or OTHER. This is one reason I know about #7 and other stuff.
Let's not be surprised by ANY elephant in the room.
As long as they are not TSP shrinking pistons
Edit: oh yeah that was the tune, nevermind... Wait! Who's going to be tuning for these pistons?
