a 302 w/ .040 over should be about a 308-310 cubic inch.

Power will be about the same. You will gain more by having a well sealed cyl bore, then you will gain by a few extra CI.

I dont see your logic.. If you're buying a cam anyway it shouldn't cost you any more to get a better than stock replacement.
