Guys,
Actually try this one as I have personal experience with great
results on the corvair.(www.tornado-fuelsaver) 

KR> mixtures?

Based on what Brian said I agree that may be some of the problem. I see a
complete 180 for the 2/4 side where as the 1/3 side has a straighter shot.
Try using this:

This should get a good swirl going and even out the mixture available for
all cylinders.
If you still have a problem with 3 running that rich, look at that cylinder
specifically: compression, valve seating, intake valve hanging open, etc...

Guys,
Actually try this one as I have personal experience with great
results on the corvair.(www.tornado-fuelsaver) My exhaust temps at cruise
are typically within 30 deg. of each other and all cylinders have a very
consistent color on the plugs as well as the exhaust pipes. I have about
50 hours with the tornado installed behind the carb directly and I am
very happy with it and it will stay installed. I do not see the hp or
fuel economy they advertise but I was only after the improvement in
mixture anyway.
Somewhere in their web site I had found a page that you can order
directly by size instead of the car model and engine size.

I would begin, at least for the summer, adjusting your EIS baro setting to the 
current setting and adjust during flight, as you would adjust your altimeter.  
It would make the E6B claculation for your density altitude for you, and would 
make mixture adjustments even more valuable.  I expect that in your area now, 
with the summer heat and your elevation already, that you are consistently 
taking off with density altitudes of 2500 feet or more.  You will not get best 
power any where near full rich, nor will you get ful power anyway, which you 
already know.  BUT you will get the most power you could get with a more 
correct mixture.  I would verify this adjustment by running up to full static 
power just before takeoff and leaning to best rpm, then richen just alittle for 
detonation protection.  With your large cooling openings, you don't need to 
overly rich full mix to help cooling, so I would fly just this side of rich 
over best lean power mix.

Just some thoughts...
