If your going to rebuild the engine, look for a ratio of not more than 9.5-1. That would be a 93 octane useage.
If the engine is in good shape, a milling of the heads can make up the difference. Just go to 9.0-1 and you'll be good. In general, a point of compresion is worth about 3% on the dyno. So it is not really worth pushing the ratio if you don't have to.
On a camshaft, the rest of the cars specs should be known before making a selection. Things like wieght of the car and rear gear ratio as well as your intended useage of the car.
