Default EGT temps on 0300D

Hi
I had to pull cylinder 3 due to low compression.
The shop said that there is some minute pitting on the valve which
indicates that the EGT is too hot.

I use an engine analyzer and run 50 rich of peak for leanest cylinder.
This puts CHT's between 300 & 350 and EGT's between 1350 and 1450.
I can't run the cylinders cooler than that and the EGT's tend to follow
the CHT's.

Does 1350 - 1450 sound too hot?
If so where do I go from here?

Tony
