Default TC88 Engine Mods?

I feel I'm doing pretty good now but I want more. Currently 78HP 92 Ft. Lbs.
Only mods. G26, HSR42, SE Pro 1 Slip Ons, SE AC

I notice my TC88 numbers are up there with a lot of the HD SE95 and 103's. Why do the SE95 and 103 Engines not doing a lot more, or why are my numbers as good as they are for an 88" compared to the 95's.

Anyway, I like the low end and mid range torque I have. It starts dropping pretty good at 4500 RPM and my Rev Limiter is still at 5200 RPM. Seldom do I even hit the limiter so I'm not after a high reving screamer.

Would I do any good going to a 95" bore, taking the CR to 9.5 or 9.7 without any head work?
Would the head work / flow even do me any good with these low duration cams?

Anyone have some good suggestions as far as an affordable upper end using the G26's?

Rev
