Default need help with block set up ASAP

I am looking at a block with crower rods and srp pistons. it is set up @10.5 compression. DO you think this is going to be too high for FI with a hondata ecu. i was planning on 10:1 anyways but 10.5 adn teh pistons being SRP is kinda scaring me. How hard would it be for me to swap out some different pistons to my liking. what parts would i have to replace in the swap? any help is greatly appreciated.

a piston swap would be easy if you're really worried about it.

Yeah, the pistons are easy to change. I think that 10.5:1 compression is too high for Hondata

Thank you guys. I know the JE is a better material, my main question was about the compression. so i appreciate the responses. Can anyone fill me on what is needed to replace the pistons? some steps? Also, i take it nothing will have to be replaced. thanks again.

Dont worry about them being SRP. Unless, you want to boost like a man. But, as far as, swapping them go, I would get new rings with your new pistons and dingle ball hone it to clean it up a little. Get a chiltons..works everytime.
