I think when I worked the numbers for my motor, I came up with 11.17:1 compression on the 402 with 2cc pistons and .050 gaskets.

yep figure around 6-7 thous for every 1cc.
so 69.8 cc's minus 30 thousands should be close to 65-66.

In talking to some very knowlegeable guys who do work on these heads and manifolds for GM, it not clear yet that these heads are a slam dunk due to port size issues.

Not to say they don't have big potential but-
