Default New Engine burning too much gas, Help.

I'm getting horrible gas mileage after installing my explorer engine. The engine runs great and puts out great power compared to my stock 5.0 engine. But it seems that I'm getting between 9-10mpg in the city. I drive this thing everyday. It's my only set of wheels. Can someone tell me where I should set my fuel pressure? I'm beginning to think that I may be running the engine too rich, but If I let the engine sit and idle, I see water dropping out of my tailpipes every so often. What does that mean?
