for starters, i wouldn't run low compression pistons as you are asking for. and since you are loooking to step up in power and still keep your bottom end torque, you need the compression to make up for your loss of cylinder pressure down low, unless you are going with a blower, but i will assume it will be n/a.i would recommend a cam with about 224 degrees at .050 with a lobe seperation ( this is where you can keep good vacuum at idle) around 114. this will give you good power up to 6000 rpm and still have decent bottom end torque. but i have this recommendation, when you stroke a 302, you are just doing what ford already did for you with the 351. and if you have been in a 351 car, you need to .
