addendum - I just spoke to Charlie at 130 and it is now running great but they starter has failed completely. Roush is sending out a new starter but at least the engine is running good now. As soon as the starter gets here she should be good to go.
This has got to be one of the saddest stories I have read regarding corporate inattention to detail and accepting responsibility for resolving customer complaints for a product that certainly is suspect. I can feel your pain and I sure as hell hope the 511 IR FE 8 stack I have on order from Roush has better luck, I am sorry to say that, but when a person drops 40 large, the current going rate for the engine, their expectations are they should get value for their money. That said, if the engine is anything like yours, Roush will face a s*** storm of biblical proportions, not a threat, just fact. tin-man
