Thanks for all the good info here. Upon further review, I took another look at my shortblock and it's actually +.080 instead of .125. My memory is not what it used to be. The Leo book says anything over .100 should be magnafluxed so I'm assuming that even though .080 over is not the best situation it's probably safe enough for a street engine that won't be used to race or pull a load. I'll find out some day when my back gets well enough for me to put it together. Thanks again for the info.
