Cool 460 ci Ford

Hello;

got a problem with the engine;
if I start the engine, you will hear the hydraulic lifters a bit, after a minute or two it is gone, then after a minute or five they gonne produce a sound that I'm thinking that the engine is breaking down! Changing oil 10w-30 to 5w-50, it's a little bit less than before, but still irritating me! What I also can not believe is that it has only 4 liters of motor oil on it, checking the operating guide it should be 5.6 liters (6 US quarts), the dip stick looks new to me, perhaps the wrong one? Allthough I found out that these engines where delivered with different oil pans! Any help is welcome!

regards Rob
