Good Parts vs Bad Parts

I have two engines, the Tomato 1592 and a Rapier 1494. The latter is fairly pristine, standard pistons, bearings and washers with very little wear, except for very crappy lifters (edge-chips and some pits).

I don't want to use the block, but the Rapier crank barely needs grinding while the Tomato crank is at 030 over already. The Rapier camshaft also appears to be better.

But, the Workshop manual states that the 1592 crank has larger big end journal diameters and big and little end bore diameters. Does this mean I'm out of luck?
