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. Hey it's waited this long and you have the 400 now for the heavy lifting. Conversely if you do have to replace those items maybe you'd want to save a few bucks by just re-ringing not to mention getting into service faster. Either way best of luck, I always get a kick out of the adventures and misadventures on your website.
In all honesty I'm a real tight wad, If I could get away with re-ringing I'm not sure I wouldn't go that route myself but I'd hate to see you get that 300 back together and then have problems when the hay's on the ground.
