Do you guys think it's a good idea to re-use main bearings? I have this C2AE block that was stuck when i got it and had a quarter sized hole blown out of the top of one of the heads so i figured the bearings were toast. Well yesterday for some reason i decided to take a look at them and they looked brand new, Same with the cam bearings, almost no wear on them at all, seems to me this engine was rebuilt then the head blowout occured within miles of the rebuild.. Here's a picture of them..

I have another set that i know for sure have only approximately 1200 miles on them and they show more wear than this.. So what's your Y's guys' take on this?
