8.82558993883869 : 1
assuming the block isn't decked, if it has been, probably more likely to be
8.9984011129872 : 1

only unkown is your piston to deck clearance. using the following for everything else

3.9" Bore
3.622" Stroke
73 CC Chamber
.051" Gasket Thickness
3.9" Gasket bore
8.6cc dish

Factoy deck... .007 out of the hole, .044 piston to head clearance would be 8.82:1?

Thanks!

Check this link out. You'll get all you need! CR is about halfway down. That shows Whistler's CR as 8.6:1.
