Default how big can you bore out a 6.0L?

I am getting a 6.0L out of a truck and it is a cast Iron block. I was wondering how big you can bore out this block. I am hoping to get the bore to 4.125"

safely .040. .060 and .080 can be done but you'll need to sonic test. .125 cant be done w/o resleaving and going that route your better off with the aluminum block.
