I just got some pacesetter lt's and a y pipe. It came with these white colored gaskets, seemed kinda weird. Are these any good?

Yes you can reuse yours. If they are in good shape you will have no problems. I reused mine and they have been working great. Good luck man.

You should be able to re-use your stock ones but if not get new GM gaskets. Those paper ones suck.

you can reuse the stockers if they are in good shape. other wise get some stock replacements. I got the percys gaskets, but thats just me.
