Do not tilt the carb based on a full throttle climb reading. Climb the aircraft to a typical cruise altitude, throttle back to a cruise rpm, let temperatures stabilize and then write down your EGT=99s. If the right side cylinders are consistently higher than the left side then consider tilting the carb.

( From 60 to 1000' ) EGT's are 1200 to 1250 on #1 thru 4 and 6. Number 5 is about 1300 ~ 1310. Outside air temp 92 degrees. My Ram Air ducts at the rear tuck back toward the front at about a 45 degree angle following the curvature of the heads. My conditional insp. is due in Sept and I am planning on tilting the bottom of the carb a little more toward the #5 cylinder. I still have not heard from anyone who has drilled out the aerator that sits on top of the needle jet and the passage to it.
