Default Compression question (gsr/b16)

If I have pistons that will net 9.5:1 compression in a gsr, What am I looking at if I put those pistons in a b16a?? I know the ccs of the head are different, and should yield a different compression #. Thanks

i beleive the chamber in a GSR head higher than a b16 so you'd loose Compression ratio... (if i remember right)

The heads are different. If you look at the combustion chamber in the GSR head it is more blocked off then the b16 head. So you will lose compression. I've heard anywhere from .2 to .4.
