<VV> turbo compression with swapped parts

[Frank DuVal]

OK,

Next question, what compression ratio would one get running 1964 164 cu 
in piston/rod assemblies with 145 cu in turbo heads and crankshaft?

So many different parts made, so many possibilities of "it will fit" to 
keep 'em running when they were cheap transportation.
