block is 86mm monster with 11.8:1 comp. (around there) I would like to know if I had the crv cams in my head if it would improver performance with this combo of high comp and slightly better cams tweeked with cam gears.

as far as i know the crv cams and ls cams are almost identical, imo i dont think it would do too much, i am assuming that you are using ls cams now?

86mm with stock sleeves? Seems like they'd be substantially weakened. I'd try to strengthen the tops of the cylinder walls prior to doing anything stressful with that block.
