Default Compression ratio?

I had .006 shaved off my heads on my 96z28. Im using the felpro gaskets which are .039 thickness. What will my compression ration be? Will my intake still line up correctly with .006 shaved off?

Good, no intake problems. I once read with the fel pro 1074's that it would bump comp up to around 10:8:1?

I'd run a .026 head gasket and get compression up more. Still won't have any issues with intake.
