Would piston coatings and exhaust valve coatings allow higher compression with 91 octane?

Not yet Brad. All of the ones we've done were street cars and casual drag racers. I would love to get one of these in a serious drag car. I would opt for a higher CR and a solid roller though.

Im interested in this setup also, but would want it to pass smog.
what cam would you be able to put in it and tune it to pass smog?
thanks
Mike
