Default main studs/head studs; waste of money? good insurance?

I searched around for a bit on replacing my studs. My AEBS head studs came in today and now Im wondering if I should have gotten main studs to.
Im shooting for a 350whp motor, and dont plan on taking it higher then 9k; if that.
This was the best info I could find
<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by earl &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">If you ate under 600whp and 10,000 rpm, I would leave the mains alone. Hondas' are plenty strong.</TD></TR></TABLE>

So...Can I reuse my OEM ones? Should I buy new OEM ones? Should I buy a set of AEBS main studs too?

my block was sleeved by AEBS and i didnt replace the main studs, they are still honda oem.. i plan on having about 400whp after this summer.. they may be good insurance if your rebuilding the block but i didnt do it.
