With the aluminum heads you could go to 11:1 compression as they dissipate heat better and you have better gas there than we do here. I run 11:1 in both my stroker and the BB with the iron heads. Just can't get on them hard with our crappy pump gas. But if you just drive it mostlyI would say around 10 1/2 compression would be good. As for cams, that would depend on what you like. High end power or a more level power band. The possibilities are endless. Get the Desktop 2000 Dyno program and play with it. That will give you a darn good idea of what different setups will give you. Normally when I got everything entered into it correctly, it was within 5 horsepower and a few pounds of torque of what the real dyno readings were. And it was righ on at the RPM they occured at.
