NEWER PA32R with Hot CHT#2

[CRAZEDpilot]

So I know #2 is hot for many of you, and Ive seen and tried the 'bushing' spacer trick on the #2 shown for the older PA32 cowling - but the 'nose' cowling on the 1998 Saratoga II HP is what I've got, and my hottest is #2 and #1 is actually my coolest, with about a 60degree range between the two in cruise, with #2 easily sitting at 400deg in a mild 'ROP' cruise setting.

Does anyone have any suggestions on improvements we can try on the newer Saratoga to alleviate this hot #2?

Thanks,
-Brendan
