Default gm header gaskets
Can I reuse my GM header gaskets, there only about 10 months old and tops 3000 miles.

Not recommended, especially since their costs is not great and it is a pain to change them if they do not seal correctly...

I've reused them before without issue. Is it the best way? No, but they can be reused.
Like said above, they are cheap and can be a PITA if they leak.
