However, I am dealing with the high idle that won't idle down until after about 60 seconds. The engine has never seen over 250-255F and it's driving me nuts.. Any tips on what I can do to calm the idle sooner. This is always after a wide open run.

The wide open runs aren't too long because I'm still taking it a bit easy on it until the nuts drop..
When you have an engine with a tight pinch at times you will see a slow drop on the idle once she frees up she will drop down quick. As stated check your idle gap and low end needle but my CRE bonitos do the same cause shes so friggin tight-its not a bad thing just means your engines will last with a good seal
