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

depends on intended use. i did a low buck sock 74 360 for my dart. has a small mp cam and is plenty for me. i do have a low gearset 904, good converter and 3.23 gears. runs on 87 octane and cruises great. plenty of power for me.

It's going to have 3.73 gearing. I'm think I can get away with that being that it's through a 5 speed
