Are you just assuming those are the changes, where does it say DI/PI in regards to the 5.0 in the article?
All i see is this:
"
Speaking of, Ford didn’t go into detail regarding its sole V-8 engine in the F-150 lineup except to say it would see improvements for 2018. The company promised significantly more power and torque, elevating it above the 385 hp and 387 lb-ft currently offered in the 2017 F-150. As with the EcoBoost and Power Stroke engines, the 5.0L V-8 receives a 10-speed automatic transmission for 2018."
And this:
"
Furthermore, Ford will offer the 2018 F-150 with a second-generation 2.7L EcoBoost V-6 that features both port and direct fuel injection to optimize power, efficiency, and emissions. Using lessons learned on the second-generation 3.5L EcoBoost, the 2.7 will also offer reduced internal friction and improved durability. We also presume more power will be on offer, giving the new EcoBoost at least 325 hp and 375 lb-ft. Those numbers should offer lifestyle consumers enough capability without asking them to step into either the 3.5L EcoBoost or naturally aspirated 5.0L V-8."
