I did not go into the engine to replace OPG and Timing chain gear I am hoping that the ATI damper will do its job. Am at roughly 590 RWHP at moment and going headers and Corn and those 2 mods should take me close to 700 RWHP and that is it for me. After that I am going to take this Coyote engine to a catholic priest and hope for the best. From what I heard today is that if you go as far as to replace the OPG and TCG then you might as well build engine. So will keep the $6,000-$8000 if it fails.

I think the opg and timing gear should be replaced well before a sleeved block is needed

Pulling engine is best way to replace those parts. Since engine is out of car which would be an excellent to to do some rods and pistons.

we do opgs all the time without pulling the engine.

doing an entire engine is much more involved

That isn't needed. My opg and tcg was installed in a day without removing the engine.
