Default Replaced timing, cam phasers, trouble shifting

Just replaced cam phasers timing chains, guides and tensiones, I swear I had the timing 100 percent right, upon first start up I got a check engine light, took it for test drive and noticed a little low power, also it didn't want to shift, I hooked up a scanner and got the code p0345 bank 2 , any one have any ideas as where to I could have went wrong?

Wrong section....but, hate to tell you buts it's out of time. It takes a rocket scientist to do that if it's an 04-08.

Repost in the correct section. You are posting in a section for the newest of trucks with mostly noobs with the new trucks.

THIS IS THE BEST ADVICE AT THIS JUNCTURE IF ROBERT DOESN'T REPLY.

from my past experience where most people make mistakes is identifying RH from LH cylinder banks. The banks are on a Ford modular motor are determined from the flywheel end of the engine - not the front of the engine. Therefore the Driver's side is LH and Passenger's side is RH.
