You can re-use your LS1 gaskets as long as they are in good shape. Make sure they still hold they're shape and aren't dried out or cracked.

i bought new ones for piece of mind. id rather pay the 25 for new gaskets rather than spend 3 hours removing and reinstalling the intake.

Yup, or to play it safe get new ones, but if its a money thing, you can give it a shot.
