Default Just Bored new LQ9 to 4.125 did I make a mistake?

I just bored a new gm lq9 to 4.125 did not go through cylinder walls and it looks ok. Are the wall to thin? I am not going to Boost or Nitrous this engine. It is going to be a daily drivin car. Any help out there is this Block Trashed?

Thanks.

FYI: People have ran into issues with iron blocks at 4.060. I'm almost positive that block is done.
