If you're on pump gas, I wouldn't run 20 psi every day, especially in the summer. KA's aren't very detonation resistant motors, and we don't have a very good knock detection system like other cars, such as EVOs do. Even with a built motor, I'd keep it under 17-18.
Also, BC cams tend to have lots of negative overlap when used with stock cam gears. Like... 20-30 degrees of negative overlap. If you can get some gears and degree them, there is definitely power to be gained. One guy on ka-t.org picked up a ton of power just from degreeing his BC 264 cams. Username was Bonomoskat.
Congrats on getting it running!
