RE: 10-10.5 is a workable ,also PCV?

I have been running 91 octane in it with a booster as it is ans still it runs a little sluggish,,Maybe I'm expecting too much from it,,I have a boss 302 that will run rings around it ,,even on the top end because of timing i'm sure,,
It has a mechanical distr that I have slowed WAY down inside and a total of 30'w/ MSD box and 1300 CFM of carbs it should be fat I would think at WOT,,That is the only place I get a ping,,
I take it everyone recommends unshrouding the valves and polishing the chambers and reassembling it as say a 10.1:1 motor?instead of dropping it on down to 9.5 ,,Thanks for the input everyone I'm just frustrated. Seems all the rules are different just a little on an FE compared to a smal block, not to mention it being 2x4
Also is anyone here certain of the pcv hose connection location on a 67 GT 500(ie vac port in side of intake etc),,there is no port on the carbs
