Default Working out compression ratio????

hi there i was wondering if i'd be able to work out my engins comp ratio without stripping it ?

i know that it has 4x4 low comp pistons, cometic 3 layer gasket, the head has been matched at 49.9cc, and is standard bore the only thing i'm unsure is if block has been decked.

i prob need to know other info as well so any help would be really helpfull
and if any1 knows the formulas

cheers tony

Ideally you would need the head off to get an accurate reading buddy.
