Hi Mike,

  What determines how much you can turn the crank undersize and expect
it to last depends on what the crank is made of and how deep the
hardening process went into the metal when the crank was made.  The fact
that Moss has .040" undersize bearings may or may not be conclusive. 
I'd ask some rebuild specialists for that engine before I went ahead.

  You say this is an engine you got from a junk yard?  Did they give you
any warranty?

  Cheers,

  CR
