It could be an injector, but have you checked the ignition coil?

get a cheap mechanics stethescope and listen for ticking at each injector. you can also use a long screwdriver, just put the tip against the injector, and the handle against your ear.
did you leave the fuel press. tester on while it was running to see if the pressure droped when it started idling poorly.

Have you ever pulled any codes to see what the computer thinks is going on? How to Run a Self Test

52 psi on the rails is too high if you have a V8. Most of the posts I see indicate ~39 psi at idle in the norm. My own '92 F350 w/5.8L engine also runs the same. If you have a six cylinder that pressure is in range. For reference of how the Fuel Pressure Regulator works: Fuel Pressure Regulator (FPR)

Check for codes before throwing more money and parts at it.

That's a problem right there. Even without any error codes you should get 111. I see no mention of having the ICM tested or replaced. What about grounds, have you checked them? Did the problem start when you changed the motor? Have you went back and verified all the wire connections are clean and tight?
