Very possibly sumping as Scott has suggested. More information would help. Who tuned? If a dealer "tuned" I would be suspect of the tune as well. If it was tuned, post the chart. What cam was installed? Can you turn wrenches? If not do you know someone that can? If the motor is sumping, the tech did not align the oil pump. Easy to check but requires removal of a plug from the case under the cam chest.
