Roush dyno's all newly built engines, but they should have dyno'ed it again in this situation. You should definitely ask.

I forgot to mention that yes, they did dyno it on Monday before it got sent back. It was dyno'ed when new as I received the sheet from them when I built the car. I appreciate the advice everyone. I just cant wait to get it back and get some miles on it. I am just concerned about getting enough miles on it to shake out any other bugs before the warranty expires.
Thanks again,
Ron
