Default What CR will this setup give me

I'm hoping to get this set up, 3.905in bore on a ls1 block, 64cc heads, and right now the forged pistons are +2cc. Are those pistons going to run my CR too high for 91 octane gas? Am I going to run into a lot of daily driving issues?

I don't have access to 93 but I guess I'll go with the 2cc pistons and we'll see what happens.
