How much quench can I run?

I am ready to order some Cometic MLS head gaskets so I can button up the top end of my 416 stroker. My short block was zero decked and I will be using Edelbrock heads, so quench is equal to the compressed gasket thickness. The rotating assembly is a Mopar cast 4" crank, Eagle H-beam rods, and Ross forged pistons (21cc dish) all internally balanced. Should I play it conservative and go with .040", or can I 'squeeze' a bit more out of it (pun intended) and go with the .036". My cam is fairly mild, so I don't expect to go over 6000rpm too often.

Lift w/1.5 rockers - 0.525/0.510
adv dur - 283/298
dur @50 - 236/248
lobe centerline - 108/116
lobe seperation - 112
