10w30 will fix it.
I know that when they designed the Cobra they originally intended to use 10w30 but Ford got some kind of grant or discount with something if they switched to 5w20, so that's what the car shipped with. I switched to 10w30. I know several other 5.0 guys who also run 10w30 and eliminated the same ticking noise.
