Dewey,
They didn't go for high compression as they dont want the issues associated with the heat and being at sea level here in Florida. I am not sure what you are finding, but not everyone needs to use high compression to make horse power. Sure big compression will make power, but there are consequences on parts such as Starters, ring gears, and the front connecting rods. I have had a few and its not worth giving up the longevity imo. Maybe fun, for the short term, but becomes like owning a boat a hole you just keep sinking money in.
Happy New Year all,
