Left rear. Left front is the second highest. I have one style TC on the left and a different style on the right.

Could it be the uneven EGT's are contributed to by uneven mixture caused by the elbo at the input of the carb?

Could be, but it was like that when I had the RC-1980 filter too. It met it's demise as part of my conversation to the church of safety wire and other positive retention.

I wonder if we have a minor intake leak on the hot EGT cylinder. I'm going to reseal the intake.

Intake resealed, no real change. Now I wonder if I have a tight exhaust valve on cylinder 1.
