I had one of these - great motor. But it was a race motor with '40s, and Elgin 310s. Me, I'd go for S cams, but Henry has built a lot more motors than I have. Got a now defunct race shop to get Cosworth to make the 85s - this before the day when there were a number of manufacturers who would make a custom piston for not much extra.
I had 10.3:1 with twin plug on US pump premium, 91 ron/mon. It idled around the paddock just fine. Bogged coming out of some corners initially, but by cranking way down on the accelerator pump I cured that.
