As above, depends on the compression height of the pistons being used.

Yes,measure the compression height of the piston from the centerline of gudgeon pin to the top of the crown.
Use this with the rest of your calcs eg block height,head chamber cc,piston bowl cc etc etc to determine final static CR.
