Ford Excursion knocks. Lifters rattle pretty bad when cold. They stop when warmed. What causes this and how do I fix it?

I have 2000 Excursion that has 160k on it and this year it started knocking and valves, lifters rattle pretty bad on cold mornings, is this oil related? I use a 5/30wt synthetic. What do I do to solve this problem, or is this normal for the v10?
