351w combustion chamber size?

Does anyone know the combustion chamber size (in cc's) of a stock 351w head (from 1984 bronco)? I'm looking at pistons for the Windsor i'm building and i need to figure out the CR. I'm looking for at least 12:1 so i might have to have the heads and the intake milled.

I'm going whith the 351W because i'll already have the enigne and a bunch of performance parts lying around for it. With 12:1 compression, a big cam, and digital fuel injection it will make close to 500hp and beable to rev faster than a big block. Plus i haven't decided yet if a am going to put it in my truck, or keep the inline six and drop the windsor in a '73 mustang.
