with the stock RB deck height of 10.725", how much can you safely cut the deck? .050"? .080"? .100"? thanks in advance.

That's a good question, I don't think I've ever had more than .020" off the deck on the half dozen blocks I had done mostly just for trueing and finish. Is your question mostly to get the piston out of the hole to up the compression?
