Before the next flight, lean the engine on the ground, at full power, and see how much leaning capability you have. I find it hard to believe that a standard un-modified carb would be too lean at a close to 5,000 foot field elevation. It says you were leaning on take-off, so make sure you aren't leaning too much for the altitude! Only lean if the engine is rough or grumbly from being to rich and if leaning for that reason, only lean enough to make the engine smooth out and no more.
If you have to lean at full power to get the engine to run smoothly, enlarging the main jet in the carb will not fix your problem, as it will only make the engine run richer, full rich, and you are leaning it from full rich. So, having a richer, full rich setting will do nothing for you.
On the first few flights, seeing CHT's in the 430 area, during climb, isn't that abnormal. I would try to manage them for a few hours. Once the engine has settled in some, you should see those temps come down. In my opinion, I would wait a while to attack things unless the cht is totally unmanageable in the climb. If you don't see the temps come down within 25 or 30 hours on the engine, then it is time to think about modifications to carbs, baffles cowlings etc. For break in, I think you should run the engine at full power for take off and only lean enough to keep the engine running smooth and maximize RPM. Keep the climbs flat to promote the most cooling air! In cruise, I would run 70-75 percent power and not lean aggressively. Try to manage any of the cht values to below 450F( the cooler the better) in the climb and you should be OK.
Good Luck,
