yeah def. forged pistons take off the pan and see if u got some rods...yeah their just head bolts...studs are what u screw into the block and use a nut to hold down the head

ive pulled a bunch of heads before and ive never seen them twisted like this. and when i pulled the pan the rods looked a bit different too... im pretty sure these arent stock headstuds... but i dont know what they are, i'll pull the pan sometime soon and checkout the rods and take a picture of those as well

Not headstuds, headbolts. :P

I agree that the pistons look aftermarket.

Sell me the head. ;)

Re:tell me what kinda pistons and head studs these are
 
the head came with a aem cam gear, maybe it has a cam too... im pretty sure it has some rods, cuz i was driving it without the wastegate connected and no boost guage for a day, and i made atleast 6, 1st 2nd, 3rd, gear pulls... then the next day i hooked up the boost guage and went again and it went to 14-16psi at 5k... and i blew the headgasket , compression tested it and it came up great 160 - 180 across.. i think any other sohc woulda thrown a rod eh?

o yeah and are these oem headbolts? or waht type HEADBOLTS :P
