please help me figure out CR

i was given a 350 tbi motor out of a 92 full size truck so that i can rerplace my warn out 305

i want to put a set of 64 cc heads on the 350 block since the tbi heads are the worst ever designed
i know the tbi heads ar 72cc
so dropping to a 64cc head will bumpo my CR up
but to what?
i have been searching for the stock compression ratio for that truck with no luck as of yet.

Re: please help me figure out CR

your knowledge is wrong. a '92 TBI 350 comes with 65cc heads, so if you go 64cc (not Vortec, those are really closer to 61cc) and use FelPro steelshim head gaskets, with the '92's dished pistons, you should have around 9.2:1
