I had the same problem.   Baffles looked great.   Engine was fine otherwise.  It was solved with a lister's help who referred me to Bart Lalonde at Aerosport Power.   My problem was an inadequate main jet orifice.  Temps dropped dramatically once I could supply a bit more fuel in the climb.  Bart had me send him the jet and he reamed it out a little.

Do you have a way to monitor your Gallons Per Hour? If so do you know what your putting through on take off? I see about 15 gph on take off climb. I did slightly enlarge my jet but did not want to go too far.
