should be around 9:1 with stock pistons unless he has the small cc chamber heads.

when the engine was rebuilt the speed shop put in forged parts and he said they were the same spes as factory the heads have the 63 cc chambers (i think thats what my bro told me ) so the compression should be around factory i am guessing 9 :1

Where do you want to make power? Centrifical chargers like the pro charger usually make more power up in the rpms, where twin screw or roots like the kenne bell and whipple chargers make power faster (lower rpm) but not as much up top. So it depends on the rest of the motor (cam, heads). And of coarse where you want to make your power. Have a plan. Dont build your longblock for high rpms and then throw a kenne bell at it. 4.10's are not necessary with twin screw also!
