There was a common problem with some of the early EFI 4.9L engines with the exact same symptoms. In those cases, the solution was to install an EGR restrictor plate between the valve and the manifold. I've never heard of this being an issue with the 5.0L though. If disconnecting the vacuum to the EGR fixed the drivability concern, try removing it and cleaning it up. While it's off, make sure the EGR passage in the manifold isn't clogged up with crap.
