Default 427 Rebuild

I'm about ready to start rebuilding the 427 I just got. The high compression thread got me thinking about what compression I want to run. What compression can I safely run and still use 93 octane gas? I was thinking around 9.8 or 10 to 1. What pistons do you recommend? It is a .060 bored block with 840 heads. I haven't decided on what can to use yet. Don't know if I want a solid or hydrolic lift cam. Any recomendations there? I drive the car 3000 miles or more a year. I am thinking about driving it in the Power Tour next year.
