Default RE: DA 50 Possibly Overheating

Ok - if anybody is still here - flew today and the only deadstick I had was from running out of gas because my high end is much richer then before. Used 24 oz gas in 17 minutes of hard flying. Here are the numbers just for reference.

DA-50 well run in on WH 300LX. Bolly 23-8 wood. Altitude 600 feet. Temp 83F. Medium humidity.
Final adjustments after several flights. High needle 1-7/8. Low needle 1-1/4 but did not adjust to sag on throttle yet.
Static RPM range 6300 to 6330. RPM's were read after each landing.
The number of landings matched the number of take-offs.

Is this OK or should I expect a little more rpm?
