What oil are you using? What filter? There is not a whole lot of collective experience here with the 5.0 yet but historically mod motors hate fram filters if your using one that is your problem. you should use motorcraft semi synthetic and a motorcraft filter or BETTER..

I will not buy ANYTHING fram.. Not even for my GMC van. Fram sucks.. The modular engine really hates Fram oil Flters.. Hopefully there is not permanent damage..
