Default LT-1 compression ratio

Does anybody know the compression ratio for a the stock LT-1 piston. I am going to get the LT-4 hot cam kit soon and since I was going to be that far into the motor I was going to change the pistons for some forged ones. Since the hot cam kit is a perfect blower cam I was planning on a blower later. :chevy :chevy :seeya :seeya

:smash: the asphalt.

In my '95 Sales brochure I think it says that it's 10.8:1....

10.8 is the LT4 (i'm positive) 10.4 is the LT-1, though some people say 10.5.
