Would yall re-use header gaskets with 250K on them? I got my LT's but need yalls advice on this since people say their re usable.
no.
What kind of headers did you get? headers usually come with gaskets

Avalanche 17s and a pant load of miles

350, 4 speed, 4.56's
32 Ford 4 door sedan
keeping it "stockish"
they're cheap enough, use new oem gaskets.
new bolts too

Barks better than it bites......
never had a bolt break in lsx heads. maybe i'm just lucky though. but yes, definitely use oem gaskets, i have never had a leak at the head with my used ones but it could start tomorrow now that i said that.
'00 Silverado, '98 Trans Am, and a couple other toys.
I've seen several that broke without being touched. Usually it's the far rearward bolt on the LH side. 6.0's are a lot worse (more common).
