If you have my book....
But, if you don't: use Plastigage on them in the cases and judge the new shells you need by the clearance.

Pretty much any manual including Hondaman's will explain the process and have a selection chart using the case markings/stampings and crank etching for the mains and rod labeling and crank etchings for rods but you need to have a good eye for these "etchings". Most folks will use these and purchase the appropriate shells then Plastigage them. You can download a Honda Shop Manual from this site. I haven't looked at Hondaman's book but I hear it is very user friendly.
