Default quick question about rod bolts

I have a 98 C5 LS1 that I'm going over for my engine swap and I have to pull the pan and swap it out. Is it worth changing these rod bolts or leaving them alone? I know the 01+ bolts are stronger not to mention ARP fasteners. I'm currently planning on just a HC combo. Leave em be or change em out? Thanks

I have a used set of ARP series2000 rod bolts, The strongest stock replacement out there.They are in perfect shape they have less than 500 miles on them .These bolts cost me $111.00 with shipping, I will take $60.00 plus shipping.
