i took my valve covers off to paint them...
dad comes in and says you should replace your gaskets if you remove the valve covers...i agree to a point, but car has 18k miles on it...stuff isnt even dirty....are the gaskets ok to use still..or should I pick up a set at chevy...
THANKS
erik
by the way, no paint got on them...

I would reuse them unless you damage them some how (hard to do). Worst case, you stretch them out a little and they're hard to get back in.

They're reuseable....pretty sure all but the head gaskets are on a ls1
