compression ratio has absolutely nothing to do with the valvetrain. A compression ratio is when BDC is compared to TDC. BDC in this case is a value of TDC i.e. x1:1 where 1 is the size of the space at TDC compared to the space at BDC which is denoted by x1 where 1 is the space at TDC and x is the coefficient of how many times bigger the space is at BDC. Valves do not change that. combustion chambers sizes, and stroke control that.
