Should i even bother with with getting a higher compression ratio?

Have a 360/5.9 magnum I've torn down for pretty much just a street car dart. I was going to leave it mostly stock and dress it up like an LA. It's honestly probably more than enough engine for the car but the urge to do something is pretty strong. The 9 to 1 compression feels low but if I get it to somthing like 10 to 10.5 with new pistons am I really wasting my time? I'm trying to see what a smart route to slightly higher comparison and a slightly more aggressive cam would be. Want to pretend I didn't just slap an old truck motor in even if that would be the reasonable thing to do
