I have considered this many times also, and something i have been told is if you have the early domed pistons with high CR they will most likely hit the valves with 88270 cams.
my 8.2:1 pistons have quite a low clearance with the 270 cams, so a bigger dome would probably touch if you didnt adjust shims, lower cam lift, etc.
i have also been told not to try and raise the compression/modify cams with stock EFI gear because the ECU/injectors wont accept, or adapt to, the change in fuel patterns and cam overlap.
In summing up, dont make a hi-comp motor with racey cams if you are going to use the old factory computer. get an aftermarket system happening, and maybe ditch the Air flow metre...
or go for webers.
this is why my motor is still basically standard, because it will be too expensive to upgrade everything properly for the gains in kW/reliability.
