Default compression change?

How much of a compression change would it be if i kept my stock rods and pistons and put a stroker crank in a 350? i dont kno what the stock compression is in a 97 CSFI vortec 350, but thats the engine thats gettin built.

you can't do that, your pistons would come out of the hole and smack the head.

sounds logical... lol. i didnt think that would work. i knew i shouldnt have listened to that guy. he said it would change the compression a little bit but not enough to have any ill affects. i asked him about the pistons hitting the valves too, he said it wouldnt. thanks
