Default Felpro or gm exhaust manifold gaskets.

I am doing my build and need to get some exhausts gaskets. I am not sure if the gm are reusable?
Also no gm in stock in my city about a week to get them from michigan. Felpro can get today but they are not multilayer steel like the gm so questions.

Can the felpro take the heat of my front mount twin turbos?
Can the gm gaskets be reused?

If you have an issue with a flange not being dead flat you need to use a graphite gasket, MLS work well and can be reused as long as the surfaces are dead flat.

Keep in mind if any local auto stores sells Victor Reinz gaskets look for those. They are the same as the gm exhaust manifold gaskets and much cheaper.
