Default largest allowable main bearing clearnance

Here is my situation. I just got my block back from the machine shop. Crank grind along with new bearings. Ive had this machine shop do crank work before. The last time the bearing clearances were .0015 using acl standards. Now im using acl .025 and had the crank ground 010 (not sure ill have to check again). Last night I was doing assembly and my plasiguage 0015-003 hadnt even smashed. So I did the math and its coming out between .006-.007 on my main clearances. Is that possible to run? I havent checked rod bearings yet, just because Im not wanting to get to deep if there are some major issues with machining. Anyone know if this is runnable?

The max helms is calling for is (0.0020 in)(0.0024 in 3rd) that's the service limit per Honda.
