Make wire the heads aren't warped and there is always the possibility of scoring the cylinders. Me and 2 other local guys in my area have had our 6.0's score.

Look in the cylinders with a flashlight and while the heads are off. This is scoring:

I'd say its from the coolant in the cylinders washing the oil from the walls and: lack of lube= friction = scoring

Tough to say thoough, could also be a factory defect or something
