Default Timing gears

Guys a few months back I had my crank polished and checked to make sure it was still useable. The machine shop said it was in good shape and just needed polishing. So fast forward I installed the bearings,crank, and pistons. Today the stock cam arrived and I got it greased and installed. I examined the camshaft sprocket and the crank sprocket both seem to be good with no visible damage. I plan to replace just the timing chain and wanted to get the forums opinion on reusing the sprockets.
