Default My All-Motor SOHC Build-Up...2 much compression?

My All-Motor SOHC Build-Up

Z6 Head,Y8 Head Gasket, P28 ECU, Z6 Intake Manifold/Distributor, Injectors/fuel rail, OBD1 Conversion Harness
A6 Block
P29 Pistons
LS Throttle body w/ Z6 intake manifold port matched (bored 2mm)

I'm guessing ill be running over 12:1 compression. Is that too much? What are your opinions on this mini me setup?
Should I just leave out the P29 pistons? Or should I scrap the z6 head and obd0 conversion because I can get better cams for the a6 head? but then i cant use a teg tb on the intake manifold...

I can't really decide what to do...

Does anyone have this setup or close to it? I'm curious what I can run with an Si tranny on my 4th gen hatch...

with that much compression form the piston, it might hinder flame travel, might wanan mill the head and block to help with compression so you can buy lower comp pistons and not hurt flame travel

That is exactly what is was thinking, the flame would have to spead a pretty arched path. I am not sure what PM6 pistons with a 1mm mill on the head would yield, but i think it would run 100 times better
