Unless you change your cams or do some headwork, that bump in compression will only yeild about an 8% gain in power (4% for every 1 full point gain in comp) or 10-12 hp. Unless you're doing a stroker kit I see no reason for changing the crank or rods. Simply using CTR pistons and a thin headgasket could get you to that 12:1 comp ratio in a B16a.
