Default Reusing engine bearings?

I searched and it hasn't been asked!? Just curious if it's permissable to reuse engine bearings as long as they're in good shape and i put them on the same rod they came from (not showing brass), just reringing my engine and don't feel like dumping alot into this car.

NO! its not a good idea. if you dont feel like dumping money into anything else replace the bearings with new ones

Didn't figure, guess i'll be ordering bearings and be too broke to buy an ECU for my mini-me.

VTEC head and DPFI FTL.

Ah hell, it's only $22 shipped for rod bearings, i expected more like $50+ Might still have enough for that ECU afterall.
