Many of the 4.6 modular UOA's I've seen (both 2 and 3V) have high copper reading/shedding for the first 20k miles or so. No one has offered a real explanation as to why...longer break-in??

Could be the copper sealant but many of the new modulars from the factory have similar results.

The high copper is also being seen in our engines from UOA reports @ www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums

The community is now accepting it as normal.

Your UOA also tells me you could easily run this oil past the 5,000 OCI and still have good results. I would even shoot for 7,500.
