Default Whats my compression? LQ9 w/ LS1 241's?

I just wanted to know what my compression would be... its an LQ4 with LQ9 pistons so its basically an LQ9 as far as the compression will go. I have some brand new 0 mile 241's I wanna put on it and was wondering what the compression would be with those on this engine. Id be using a stock bottom end and stock head gaskets.

Thanks for any help, if more info is needed let me know.
Mike
