2.2 options > is 10.5:1 too much?

Hi, i ahve bought what appeared to be 10.5:1 85mm JE pistons.


Been told that they will be too much compression to run on pump gas. Ive read that there is 2 ways to reduce comp ratio:
1) use copper gasket between the cylinders and heads
2) remove material from the dome.

Any opinions?
