Cylinder head straightening

I have never installed a milled head myself on an OHC MB so I have never been faced with this problem but I did see on head rebuilder advertize that he straightens heads instead of mills them just to avoid this problem. Obviously if the head is warped and you mill it the cam towers will be unaligned when its all bolted down. I would like to hear from a certified MB technichian on this as to what is the accepted proceedure for a warped head.
