Quite frankly, I'm doubtful that anything bad is going to happen. These engines are SOOOOO robust. I suppose valves could touch pistons if the cam timing is off due to the chain wear, but how often do we hear about that? Or any other chain problem other than people worried about their chains. In fact, we rarely hear about engine failures at all. And.....your plan is to freshen the engine anyway.
Candidly, I probably will never rebuild another 3-liter. When I need another engine, I'm likely to be in 3.6 territory. Sell my engine for whatever its value is.....add the rebuild budget to that.....and pony up just a few more bucks for a V-Ram 3.6. Or 3.8 or whatever.
