If your quench height is optimal (~0.040-0.045) and your combustion
chambers are polished and your timing curve is just right and you have
reasonable duration overlap (to bleed off compression) and you can keep
your operating temps down you probably will be ok.  I assume your running 
cast iron heads?

The "system" as a whole and how it is designed is tantamount to
eliminating detonation at higher CRs.
