So you want to drop it down...Those are the 6.0L heads aren't they?
Stock is 10.5:1 (That is static CR).
Are you planning on Forced Induction or something? If so you might want to drop your compression via pistons. Because if you need to drop it enough to crank the boost up.....bye-bye bottom end.

Oh yeah, 6.0L heads should put you around 9.5:1

Yep, 6.0L heads will be right at 9.4-9.5:1...
