OK, I've been helping on this 7A for a while now. Been over the baffling multiple times, still find the little gap here and there. It does have the 'washer trick' installed on #3, which helped a bit. Here's a takeoff on an 80F day.
OK #3 runs hot (433F peak here). Engine (new Lycoming) is using very little oil, Phase 1 is now just completed so really broken in by now. O-360-A1A (carb).
Odd EGT signatures on the take off. Note how #2 droops, and then rises. Thoughts? No louvers installed ... yet. If we can't figure this out, that's probably the next step.
The intake pipes hardware were checked for security a while back.
Things are OK in cruise.
