Many moons ago when I first had my K done, I had a similar problem with compression ratio.
Accralite pistons are not ideal in these circumstances from what I gleaned at the time, Omegas being a better bet. I ended up having the Accralites skimmed, but all this adds to the cost.
That said, by careful work with the head it was possible to sort the CR out. I think it started at 12.5 or 13 and went down to just over 11. But don't hold me to those numbers! Note that taking too much out of the head can cause other hassles later...
However, I'd get a bit more info together before proceeding:
1) Ask whether the block has been skimmed or not, and by how much.
2) Ask if the head has been skimmed or not and by how much.
If too much has been taken off either, you're going to have more difficulty getting the CR sorted, and should you need to have any work done in the future (if a head gasket goes and the head is affected etc) you have little or no room for manoeuvre.
I wouldn't mess with the head gasket at all (use one of the beefed up versions that are available regardless).
oily and PC are much more knowledgable than I, but depending on what info you get from above, you *may* be better off replacing some of the bits to give you a better long term bet.
