243 heads, .040" gaskets and Vindicator cam? PTV issues?

I have 243's that were milled ever so slightly to make sure they were perfectly flat, with .040 cometics gaskets, any chance of running the Vindicator cam without flycutting? I really really really don't want to pull the heads.

I would say no but call vengeance to confirm.
If they say yes, ask wht will be intake and exhaust PTVC values.
If less than .070 on intake, I wouldn't take the risk
