| Brian,
I had high EGT's at one time. Turns out it was due to an overly restrictive muffler. The high EGT's damaged the o-rings resulting in an engine overhaul. Could this possibly be at the root of your high EGT readings?

My engine is now running just the way it should, temps were 180 or lower on a 75 degree day, but my EGTs have always been high, really high- above 1800 almost all the time. I think it may be a calibration issue. My egt sensors are about 3 inches downstream of the exhaust ports, and I am using Tracy's EM2, calibrated at the stock settings. When the engine is stone cold, the egt's read about 230 degrees, which I assume is normal because the sensors are meant to operate at a much higher temperature. Any thoughts?
