d16 piston questions?

if i used 86-89 integra pistons in a d16y7 what does it bring the compression ratio up to? can i use these with my stock rods? will there be any clearance issues?

can't use them, valves will smack the piston tops.

the piston dome is not same shape as the head. You can use a 88-89 teg piston in a 88-91 1.6 motor, but not with a VTEC head.

Valve included angle
