Continuing from my other thread...
Added the washer as suggested to the #2 baffle to create a space between the inlet baffles and the flat section of the #2 cyl and sealed any other gaps.
Still the #2 CHT wants to go high very quick. It is manageable with climb speed but I don't think it should be at 410 before I even taxi to the run-up at idle the whole time (600RPM). It cools right down at 130MPH but is still 30-50 deg hotter than the others.
Timings been checked
Baffles checked
Washer Inserted
Air Damm removed
EGTs are all within 50-100 of each other with #3 often the hottest and in the 1200 deg range during T/O and climb. At 160 MPH 8500FT and 60% power CHTs are 315, 375, 330, 346 FF is at 18.6gal/hr
Oil temp remains between 165-185 all phases of flight.
Another washer maybe? I'm perplexed...
