Re: Re-use Exhaust Manifold Gaskets?

Because they are a layered, metal compression Gasket and mine looked good upon examination, I would have to say you could reuse them.

That being said, I didn't but I had plenty of time to get gaskets while mine were off being coated.

I would also recommend getting them coated, it is worth the wait if you can swing it, send them to Swain Tech.
