Reuse side seal springs?

I just pulled and opened my reman engine that had 63k miles on it. Two of my side seal springs are broken. Is there any reason I wouldn't want to reuse the rest of them?

The real question is do you want to open your motor again after you rebuild it. If you don't, use all new parts :)

I think there are recommended heights listed in the manual. I never checked mine since I bought new.
