ARP crank bolt is reusable as it is not a torque to yeild / stretch type bolt. New gaskets are always cheap insurance to prevent leaks.

Sounds good. I have heard a lot of folks getting that one and it works out great for them. I have the 228/232 111LSA and it is a daily driver. I love it. Good luck with your set up. The ARP is reusuable.

It doesnt mateer if your gaskets were replaced 30 days ago. The crank seal is less than 15 bucks, and the front cover is around 25 bucks. As soon as you run your car for ANY length of time, you jeopardize the sealing qualitys of the crank seal.
You run an extreme chance that you will have oil seeping issues. Do you really want to have ALL those extra hours worth of work over 40 bucks? Also..You will need waterpump gaskets.
Dont be ridiculous (or that cheap
)... Buy the damned gaskets and be GAURANTEED you wont have leaks.
