Default How much can be milled?

I have a chance to buy a used set of PRC LS6 stage 2.5 heads.The guy I am getting them from said he had them milled .030 before he put them on. I am wanting to run the Torquer v.2 cam with them. My question is how much can be milled off the LS6 stage 2.5 heads before I run into PTV clearance. I am not wanting to flycut the pistons because I want to spray N20.

Default PTV clearance

ASKipper,

I have 243s milled down to 62ccs, the TQv2 cam, pistons .010 out of the hole, and a .040 head gasket with no problems. I'd like to mill an extra 2ccs from my heads... but don't want to push my luck.

First of all on what LSA and Advance (ICL) is the cam.
Second of all if they are 230cc PRC LS6, I would pass on these, theheads are prawn to cracking. The later 227cc versions are better.
