16V head-combustion chamber volume?




I understand that the 16V head has a greater combustion chamber volume in 
the cylinder head than the 8V engine (right?) which results in 
undesireable compression ratios when mixing and macthing 8V and 16V 
heads/blocks (ie. 8V head on 16V bottom end = high CR & detonation, 16V 
head on 8V block = undriveably low CR)

Does anyone know how much of the chamber volume is in the head on the 16V?  
How close to the deck do 16V pistons come at TDC?
