How about 7.4:1
As I recall the 7A has a 46 cc combustion chamber, add to that the 16.1
cc in the piston & gasket then divide by the displacement of one
cylinder 62.1/461.2 = 7.426
The 16.1 can be derived from the total combustion volume of a cylinder
in the NG of 46.12 - 30 cc chamber volume.

We've been through this before, I think it actually
works out to ~8.5:1 or something. Whatever it was, I
remember that it was pretty good for a turbo motor.
That 6:1 CR is what you'd get with a 20vt head on an
MC block. Good if you want to run 30 psi of boost....
