If the rod discolored, I would replace it. If it is a cracked cap design, maybe not. Don't know if they can be machined flat and rehoned. As far as durability in your stroker, you get what you pay for.
If you didn't spin the bearings I'd be tempted to reuse them. If you have no discoloration that's good but I'm not sure discoloration would be a problem. I've had many B/RB rods assembled by using a rod furnace to expand the small end of the rod on a pressed pin assembly. As to cracked cap rods, I thought the only way you could rebuild them was to bore them oversize and use the oversize bearings. As to durability in a stroker, I agree with sgcuda.
