Angry Blew up the big block

well 11.5/1 compression and crappy quality premium petro canada fuel don't mix. When I tore the motor apart the piston in the #8 cylinder had a chunk taken out of it and at leats 2 piston rings are shattered, but luckily no other damage. In the past 8 years I have had that motor apart 7 times. Always stupid things like blown head gasket, broken con rod, bent push rod stuff like that. Just the romance of an old pickup I guess
