I had this problem when I was using the wrong MAF on my 5.0L. I had the same problem as you describe.  What Mods have you done to the engine and what programming are you running?
My car is a gravity hybrid.  The gasoline engine gets me up the hills, and gravity gets me down.

I had the same problem with my 5.0 cougar. It was a bad egr valve. I blocked it off and it runs great.
