7.5-8.5 DCR / 91 octane or better.
Another source... Desirable for a street engine, staying below 8.25 is probably best for trouble free motoring.
Use this to determine intake closing point in degrees

And remember to use seat duration, NOT .050" duration (even if the factory cam does not use .006" tappet lift. It will be good for conversation )

So both cams put me in the same category, 91 or better.
I know that 93 octane still needs booster with the 2157.
Using a ratio it looks like the 068 would knock me down to 10.7 to 1 from 11.5 to 1.
Probably still need booster for the 068.
Lots of things sound good until you actually crunch the numbers.
