IMHO You really can't do cylinder work without removing everything from the block so that it can be cleaned and worked on properly. It is most likely going to require some degree of machine work to get the new sleeves installed. Not sure what the concern is with removing the valve and cam, that is a fairly simple thing to do and well worth the effort. Once you pull the clips on the valves they remove as an assemble, then the lifters and then the cam pulls out.
