Will your 352 clean up at .030?

I think it will clean up with a hone.... Seriously, it's in very good condition. I do not have an ID Micrometer but i feel no ring ridge, see no gouging and a caliper measures it at 4.00. Granted that's not a good enough measurement for me, but after all three observations I'll be surprised if it needs more than .010 machined away. I'll let my builder worry about that. For now I just want to source the crank (will inquire at autozone and go that route if crank isn't too undersized) and a set of rods. Will chose pistons with builder hopefully next week. This assumes i can find the crank and rods soon.
Thanks!
