At this stage, there's little point in worrying about the compression ratio?

If the head is still off, its not that hard to check. If its together and running OK, then I agree, no real point in checking it now.
This sort of thing ( machining, clearancing, etc.) is why I said you have to check it to know for sure.
Good Luck to all.
