Yes, that's safe, and many peopel take it to 4.060 in a N/A application but if your going to go any more than your planning DEFINITELY get the block sonic tested to make sure you have enuff meat in there and wouldn't hurt to sonic test your 4.04 ironbloc, (especially if your going to be on the laughing gas or other type of f/i).
