I have seen people running 12.5 to 1 with aluminum heads. Just wondering if it will work with 94 octane and a comp xfi 280hr. The compression ratio calculator said it would have about 197psi of cranking compression.

Have you done a DCR Calc ?
That is a better indication of whether it will knock

I'm Just gonna mix 110 with it. I figure with about 100 octane I should be okay.

i know 12.1 is fine on the street with alum heads and a Good tune.
