Default First build - Milling 799 heads question, please help

I searched and searched only to get more confused. So pleas help lol So to the point. Building a LQ4, bored .030 over using wiseco flat top pistons -3.2 cc. I'll be using 799 heads with a stock ls3/l92 head gasket. Using a BTR Stage 4 cam (235/242 .621"/.592" 111+3). I want to mill the heads to bump compression. How much do I mill that's safe?

You can cut .030" (~5cc) pretty easily. Wiseco has pretty deep reliefs so PTV isn't going to be an issue.

Thank you very much KCS. I figured .030" would be good but wasn't for sure. That should put my compression ratio around 11.0:1 based off some research?

Using this info...

Bore: 4.030"
Stroke: 3.622"
Head Gasket: 4.10" x .051"
Valve Reliefs: 3.2cc
Deck: -.010"
Chamber: 59cc

...I get 11.6:1 for compression ratio.
