Default Evolution .40 transition problems.....

This is a pretty well broken in engine now with a season of training on it under Cool Power pink. It's not been an easy life as the plane it was in fluttered out of the back of a pickup on the road and scuffed the top edge of the carb throat opening and broke a few fins but it has run pretty well..... Until recently.
I cannot get it to transition. I seems too lean but I have adjusted the low speed to the end of it's adjustment. I set the HS needle to get predictable results and a constant rpm. I get a decent idle but no transition. When I start the transition it bogs and choking it with my finger over the carb (yeah yeah... I know but it's my blood) sustains it.
Has anyone else found it necessary to adjust the LS past the stops they provide?
