911 2.4L engine rebuild question

Oh, I now understand about raising the compression with the 2.2 pistons.

If I do the 2.2 pistons and thus raising the compression, can the car run on
93 octane? I think that you or Peter Morgan said in your book that the 2.4
lowered the compression by lowering the placement of the piston rings and
thus lowering the compression to run lower octane...

I guess that I must also swap the camshafts with the 2.2 pistons. Do I have
to bring the rpm up high in order to take advantage of this change?

The 911T has Zenith carbs. I was really hoping they were Weber after
reading your book. Anyway, it sounds strange that they weren't cis or mfi,
but I think this vehicle came down from Canada or something. It might not
be US made.

2.7 pistons an option?
