The 360 build that has more turns than Willow Springs

That is interesting.
If I recall, this engine had the pistons right near zero deck, (Maybe .010 below deck) the pistons have 5ccs worth of valve reliefs. With a 63cc chamber, what is the compression ratio?

Even if I have it wrong and am .020 below deck...

Over 10.25 to one with iron heads on no better than 91 octane?
The compression ratio has little to nothing to do with detonation or head gasket failure. That's attributed to excess cylinder pressure and heat.
