I am going to rebuild my 292 in a month and I was wondering what approximate ratio I would be running if:

292 bored .040 over

forged flat top pistons with stock height

G heads ported and polished with high ratio rockers

ford cast 4 barrel intake with mild 4 barrel carburetor

block decked to piston flush

composite gasket possibly fel pro or best gasket

Would I have approximately 9.0:1 ratio?  I have heard not to go over 9.0 :1  if forced to run lower octane fuel. 

Thanks
