Default Cam/Heads/Compression

Keith - if all goes well, shortly I will be looking to change my engine combination to fit it into another Cobra. I'm planning on removing the blower, upping the static compression, and fitting a more radical camshaft to suit the new combo.
Currently:
SVO N-351 9.5" block
SVO A-410 3.9" crank
Crower 6.25" billet rods
JE inverted dome 8.5:1 pistons
Super Victor w/90mm Accufab throttle body
Vortech YS @ 14lb boost
Comp Cams Solid roller
Duration at .050 inches
242/254
Lift Lobe Lift .380/.388
Valve Lift with 1.6 rocker .608/.621
Lobe separation 112
Comp Cams Enduro stainless rockers
340lb seat K Motion springs
Victor Jr heads 2.08/1.60 flowing "supposedly" 320/235cfm @ 28" @ .700 I never did see those flow charts.....

The motor's currently putting out about 860hp @ 6400rpm and 705lb/ft which holds basically flat from 6000 to 6400rpm, so I suppose the heads are breathing pretty well. I broke a few blower belts on the dyno before we could see what the maximum HP would have been.

I want to remove the blower and intake and run something like a converted Kinsler intake and up the compression to suit the 98 octane pump gas available here. I'd also like a hydraulic roller this time, and I'll be fitting a dry sump assembly. Basically, I want to turn the motor into something like a tamed down Ford version of an Outlaws Sprintcar motor. A Tilton 7.25" clutch assembly and G-Force GF5R trans will be bolted up to it, so I want something that can pick up rpm in the blink of an eye.

If I can buy the parts as a matched set, it would make life much easier for me. Do you have an opinion on what would need to be changed to suit my goals?

Thanks for your time,

Craig
