Re: High compression engine and pinging

What about running a cam with a lot of overlap? I'm running 12:1 compression on 882 heads plus a 292 cam and I run it every day (its my daily driver) and still able to run on 93 (even on 87 it runs fine). This way it lowers your dynamic compression thus allowing you to run pump gas, but I'm no engine builder by any means so anybody please chime in if i'm wrong.
