If you want to go to the extreme, you can mill the head down to where the last cut will touch the economizing browel around the intake valves. As far hp, you won't see a significant gain (couple-three) but you will benefit from a little higher compression.

Travis it will be difficult to tell,the tractor is 50 yrs old and chances are it has been milled before when a valve job was done. If you get compression to high you will have to use premium fuel to keep it from pinging ,those M&W pistons will get it on up there,I got a GM with the MW pistons and I can handle three fourteens easily in third gear and maybe fourth.
