You can pick up a considerable amount of low end with a simple compression 
increase. Yates aluminum heads will support around 10-1/2:1 on regular gas, or 
11:1 on 92octane (or race fuel) with that big a cam. 9:1 is almost a blower 
compression.... I'm running 10-1/2:1 with similar A-3 heads, a smaller cam & a 
700 DP tuner-Holley, and no pinging on 87 octane. FWIW- J Deryke
