Default reuse intake gaskets?
I've had the intake off a couple of times now and haven't bothered to get new gaskets like gm says. Has anyone ever had any problems with this?

I had my intake off 3 times with out any problems BUT the last time I had it off during my blower install I had a bad vac leak. For the cost I'd recomend replacing them. I got mine from car quest for about half of what the dealer wanted.
