Default how much do i need to mill my heads

i'm looking to get my cam for my l92 heads

i talked to jason over at TS today and he said 11:5:1 c/r would be good with his 248/256 on a 114+3 he didn't give me lift specs

but he told me to figure out my c/r and stuff and go from there

so what headgaskets should i use and how much should i mill the heads

i have a iron 408 with flat top diamonds with l92 valve reliefs

the most i've seen L92 heads milled is 64 cc, but i don't know if tsp will go that far? at what point will we begin having intake fitment problems? website shows 67 cc as max. if you're using flat-top pistons you'll need to mill quite a bit from the L92s to achieve an 11.5:1 cr.

Are your heads CNC'd? Did they reshape the combustion chamber thereby increase the size? Was a valve job done that moved the valves further into the seats?

Figure about .006 mill per cc but you need to know where you started.

Should be about 68cc then... (Yes, I know that the word is that they're 70cc, but I recall that someone here on LS1Tech measured & found 'em to be 68cc...)
