Replacement Bolts [solved]

I’m about to rebuild my K20Z3 engine in my 2007 Honda Civic Si. It is my understanding that all torque-to-yield bolts should be replaced, such as head bolts and connecting rod bolts. However, the main bearing cap bolts are torque-to-yield, and my Haynes manual does not tell me to replace them. Should I still replace them, or are the original bolts fine to reuse?

Consult a real manual or phone the dealer.

I have reused mine a couple times. No visible stretching and nothing mentioned in the service manual.
