Default 243's shaved .020 ballpark cc?

I am having my heads reworked and trying to come up with my new compression ratio after having my 243 heads decked .020.

its a TSP Short block with Diamond -2cc pistons. Any clue?

Chambers will be about 61cc after milling .020". Assuming pistons out of the hole .005", 347ci build, and using GM MLS gasket your static compression would be about 10.9:1.

thanks!

Matt, just for grins, you guys don't have/sell any used Ls6 blocks do you? I saw you had new ones, but looking for a cheaper alternative for replacing one with an out of spec Bore...

No sir, we don't keep anything used laying around very often at all.
