Roger:
336 small bocks are usually a 0.060” over 4” bore with a 3.25” stroke. With a piston dome of 13cc, a chamber volume of 64cc, along with a 0” deck height and a 0.041” thick gasket with a 4.1” diameter, that come out to 12.5-1cr. Put a 58cc chamber on that combination and that comes out to 13.8-1cr. Or something close to that.

Thanks Roger, that's what I was looking for.
