That is exactly what I was thinking!

Seems like a big waste. A 318 with zoomies in an EZ Go would be just as stunning to see, hear, and drive. Especially if you don't have the cash.
Anyway - you can calculate the compression just like any other engine but you need to cc the piston 1" down in the bore, and use that info in the formula. My impression is it will be much lower than you think. I terms of a replacement cam - I've always loved (and still use) the H-302-2 hydraulic. It's the same family as that solid, but a little more lift, a hair less duration, and a little tighter LSA.

Dart - here's the catalog listing:
Good mid range to upper RPM torque and HP, rough idle, performance usage, auto trans w/3000+ converter, 3800-4200 cruise RPM, radical street, also mild supercharged, nitrous, 340+ cu.in., 10.0 to 11.5 compression ratio advised.
H-302-2 3200-6800
232° 242° @ .050, 302° 312° adv, 114 LSA .504" .528"
p/n 694561*
In a 360 it will be a little more calm than what they describe but it's a noticable idle. It will exceed 450hp with ported iron heads in the right engine.

Thanks Moper. This motor has J heads fully ported and the surfaces were machined at some point prior to me owning. Intake is single plane torker 340.
