I'm running 12.0:1 compression!

My 18RGU is running an enormous amount of pressure!
What do u guys reckon my horsepower would be?
I've got:
balanced and reground crankshaft, balanced and lightened flywheel, major porting, shaved head(thats why comp. is so high), competition cams, 2.75inch straight through exhaust with only one muffler-supertrap, custom mandrel-bent extractors, custom airbox with pod-filter on twin solexs, and a holley red fuel pump.
I tried to get it dyno tuned, but the guy wouldn't do it cause it was running on-a problem when running so much compression.
I'm guessing about 150hp or above. The fastest I've got on the strip is 16.83@89mph with traction loss through till third(baldish tyres-no money). With new tyres i'd think i'd get into the high 15s easily.
PS- is there any quick fix to stop my car running on? I've tried remapping the distributor and lowering the revs, etc... and they don't work when the motor is hot. Any suggestions apart from dropping the compression?
