Not a chance. Your 300 MHz 8600 is a Mach5 motherboard and CPU design; your 150 MHz 8500 is an earlier design which is incompatible with your 300 MHz processor card. Pre-Mach5 motherboards require either: 1) a pre-Mach5 Apple processor card, or 2) a third-party processor card which is designed to work in either a non-Mach5 or a Mach5 motherboard.
