How much Steerer can be left on a carbon fork?

I'm looking at purchasing a new, uncut Van Dessel Fork to put on my Leader 725. The frame has put me in an awkward position. My current fork is far too short and it's leaving me with around 4 inches of drop between my saddle and the flats of my bars. With the drop section of my bullhorns (RB-021) being even more extreme. I'd ideally like to cut that drop in half. But that will leave me with a bit of a stack on my Headset. I'm hoping to run a full carbon fork. What's the longest steerer i can safely run?
