If the pistons and sleeves look in good enough shape for you go ahead and use them. If you have a good machine shop you trust take the pistons and rings and while your at it the crank and get them mic'ed and get their opinion on them. If it were me though, if you've got to replace things such as the TA and the clutch, in my opinion you may as well go the extra mile spend the extra on the pistons and do it right the first time.
