If the idle is set too high it will run-on. Set it as low as you can. You could also try colder plugs, but once the ignition is shut I don't know how much that makes a difference anyway.

At 195 psi compression, it sounds like you either milled the head or have some domed pistons. Are you running the highest octane you can find?
