I'm pretty sure that going .010 is too much but don't quote me on it. I went .007 on my setup but was told that's the "safe" limit. Maybe someone else will chime in.

I went .005. I think that much will definately make the walls to thin and weak.

The engine shop I took mine to honed mine .010" They said it was wore .003". I hope it will be fine. They have been building and racing LSx's since they came out, so they are experienced with them anyways.
