Default Ls1 heads

Hi everybody.
just looking for some advice.
I know standard 5.7 heads have a combustion chamber of 66.67cc with the engine having a compression ratio of about 10.1:1. I want to up my compression ratio a wee bit. I have an intake that will flow 2500cfm of air. And the heads I am looking at have intake runners that flow 310cfm of air. Anyway back to the question I want to know what my compression ratio will be with 65cc, 64cc, or 62cc combustion chambers on standard internals. By standard internals I mean standard size stuff but brand new. I have tried using an online calculator to work it out using standard measurements I found online but couldn't even work out the standard CR to 10.1 properly. Anyway if anyone has any info to help me out abit would be great.
cheers

823 are not 65cc and will not work on 3.9 bore so those are not an option. Has anyone seen 895 castings ?
