Post compression ratio for 70 429

I have 13cc dished Sealed Power pistons (part#413np) with 75.8cc
combustion chambers and need to know what the compression ratio would be. The motor is a 1970 429. Thanks for any info!

Should be somewhere around 9.5:1 to 9.8:1.

compression ratio for 70 429

There is a lot of discussion on the compression ratio in the forum. If you do a search you can pick them up. Also, several websites have compression ratio calculators. Just do a search using those as key words. Some include deck height and gasket thickness, others are simple. Here is one.

Hope it helps.
