Default d16y7 Block with D16a6 Head? Comp Ratio?

My friend just swapped a b18c in his DX hatch, and seeing how I already picked up a y8 manifold and JG 310x cam. I was wondering how much of an increase in compression would i see by using my d16a6 head on a d16y7 block. My a6 block has real good numbers (forgot um), but I would rather use the d16y7 because of its lower miles.

it would lower it by 1 point so if its at 9:1 now id be at 8:1 larger combustion chamber
