Default compression help

i know this question has been answer or asked a trillion times already but how much or high can you rev with a compression? 11.5CP=? 12.5CP=? rpm rev limit. is there a site or something to help me figure this thing out?

thanks

Compression and rev limit are not related.

The only time your rev limit would matter is when you have tight piston to quench clearance or when the rod will stretch enough to close the spark plug gap. Even then, the static compression ratio is not what limits you.
