Try google. It's a relatively new thing. Works like a charm.

I would have thought if it was dropped for model year 22 we would have heard of it before now. One of the links say port fuel injection only, another says port/direct.

Any 22 GT owners have direct injection?

Still none of the links show "official ford engine specs"

Try google. It's a relatively new thing. Works like a charm.

Apparently not as each of the links show something different.

I think that means 22's have 5.5:1, that's where that 10hp went for sure. That also means 22's are way better for boosting

Seriously guys, it’s a freakin’ website misprint. Nothing changed. The drop was already discussed by Ford and it was emissions related.

I agree. This all started with a youtuber pointing out the error on the website and it has exploded all over the web. If this was true ford would be on the hook like they were in 1999 with the new 32v Cobra on the new edge which resulted in a class action lawsuit and a huge recall
