They changed the material of the rod so they don't need it.

Huh?

They're piston cooling jets. They cool pistons. They have nothing to do with rods, and besides, the rods are the same for all coyotes through 2014.

They eliminated the squirters when they changed the pistons. The '13+ pistons have a phosphate coating on them and additional gas porting over the earlier coyote pistons. I suppose Ford deemed that enough of a change to keep the pistons together.

I prefer oil squirters. How do you feel?

I think they're completely inadequate in protecting the pistons' ring lands. Apparently Ford does too.

Oil squirters suck so bad they put them in the 2013 GT500.

I'm glad I have them with the supercharger.

Yeah I have no idea why I said rod there. Too much GTA5 yesterday.
