Default D16Y8 on ZC Block???????????????

I'm wanting to put a torbo or run nitros on a single overhead. I heared tha if i put a D16 head on a ZC block and get 12.9 compression. does anyone know if this is true? what i am wanting to do is build a O.K. , fast , SAFE motor. can anyone help me get started? i am very new to the motor area so any suggestion will help.
