.010 too much for factory sleeves?

Just wanting some opinions on whether or not .010 off the factory sleeves would weaken them too much for 650 rwhp? According to a shop near me that is what they believe is needed to be removed to get them right? Then they say I would need to resleeve my block instead so it would be strong enough to support the 650rwhp?
