Do You seriously run that O-300 at full RPM -ALL THE TIME? Or do you adjust the RPM to match what you are doing,i.e. takeoff power,cruise power,landing power? No engine is designed to be run at full throttle for a great length of time. Most Aircraft engines I've operated only allowed full takeoff power for up to 3 minutes and then a reduction to lower RPM/manifold pressure is required before damage occurs. High RPM means shortened life for aircraft an engine or at least shortened TBO (time between overhaul).
