You're the expert. I was running 2600 rpm because it's my understanding a new engine should be run fast until the oil consumption stabilizes. The 13.7 was just my recollection. I know I have seen burns in the 12s but find it hard to believe what I'm seeing. I flight plan a C182 at 12.5gph (ROP). Can I be going this much faster behind a bigger engine on the same fuel ! Now how far could Erik really go on that 300 gals?
