Default short deck

How much can the aluminum block deck be shaved? Assume I'm putting in custom length rods, custom compression height pistons and I will have a custom intake manifold. I would like to lower the deck a lot. Can I do .020? .200? .500?

I have a cutaway picture of a block and it looks like there is about 3/8" meat before hitting the coolant passage.
