Default Milling stock ls1 heads?

Hey guys been a wile. Working on my brothers 99 T/A doing a trans and engine rebuild. Want to mill heads to bump compression. Question is how much to mill and what will that give us for compression? Cam is small, going with comp 220/224 112 .535 lift. Thanks

I milled my 241s .030" and with GM mls gaskets ended up with about 10.75
Your heads should be the 853s with the deck surface notch so they use a
different gasket than mine IIRC.

Thanks, yes I was thinking going with .030 as well so we can use stock length push rods. Hoping this cam, milled heads and a 3k stall gets her moving good. Also gonna run 3" Texas speed x pipe.
