Default -16cc pistons = what compression ratio?

Stock LS1 shortblock:
-Eagle H-beam rods (6.125")
-Mahle -16cc pistons (3.903")
-stock LS1 heads

What would be the compression ratio?

It would depend on your Chambers but with a 66cc chanber you's be around 8.8 to 1 or so. 62cc would be ~9.2 to 1 and 72cc would be right around ~8.3 to 1 all of them at the stock stroke. Give me an email as well see Mahle pistons as well and have used them fairly extensively. There are a few things to know about them but they are excellent pistons.
