I have a Model 3, rebuilt the 582 and have a GSC 3 blade. I think it is set to 10 degrees (per manual) but will measure tomorrow. Started the break-in and EGTs were both just under 1,300 degrees at 5,000 RPM (at 3,500 RPM they were both around 1,000 degrees). Bing needles both set as high as they will go, so should be rich (not hot). Run up done with cowls off. Using E-0 fuel in Oregon. I know I need to finish the break-in process, but was concerned about the EGT's. Any thoughts from the group? My tech counselor thought that running the prop at 10 degrees might contribute to the issue. The log book from 1994 said they had it at 14 degrees, which is quite a difference.

Thanks,
Steve
