What oil are you using

For any Aussie guy's Penrite does a 0w40 that specifically lists LSPI as one of the things that this oil protects against.
Yes, it doesn't technically have the Ford approved spec but it meets everything else.
Been running it in mine for a while without issues (outside of unrelated oil consumption problem anyway 😅)

@Magertron27 I discovered this a little while back also, I'll be changing to that, next oil change. I used it in my built engine in my Evo 3 and it never missed a beat.

Figures! The 2 local stores I checked; had bunches of 0w-40 synthetic on their shelves.

This! They typically are running a coupon for 20% off. Makes it cheaper than RA.

I run Motorcraft Full Synthetic 5w50:
XO-5w50-QGT (amazon, $147 for 12qt)
Motorcraft filter:
FL400S (amazon, $6 ea.)
The 400S filter increases the total oil change capacity from 5.7Qt. to 6.0 Qt. - Top of crosshatch for me, once engine is warm and has sat to refill pan.
I also change my oil every 3k, got tired of nasty valves and spun bearings from the past
