Default milling D15B7 head

Hi all, i'm wondering how much I can safely mill off of a stock D15B7 head before having to do any valve relief work or anything.
Thanks!

The height for a new untouched head is 3.540 inches.
The service limit height for a shaved head is 3.530 inches.

The service limit on the head in the manual doesn't allow much cut because the stock cam gear is not adjustable. If you have an adjustable cam gear, then you can shave a bit more to allow valve clearence.
