How big is the cam?
Need to look at your calculations, FT with those heads and typical 0 deck get you in the 13.5:1 + range.

pistons are .020' down the bore,
chambers were finished at 75cc.
I will have to dig out my book with all the measurements

Cam specs are going to cost you some power. Might consider something custom.

yes but once you break an oil pump and totally trash the whole engine it seems like not so much then, pay now or pay later
