I got new gaskets with my ls6 manifold
Otherwise you could prob re-use your old ones--new ones are $40 or so

You can re-use the gaskets, but I got new ones. But you will NEED the front LS6 coolant tube and plugs for the rear coolant tube. Contact Tbyrne or your favorite sponsor here. They all sell them.

I'm buying one used. The person i'm buying it from said I would need a paper gasket. Can't figure out what the paper gasket is for.

Mine didn't, it only came with the throttle body gasket, the rest i had to reuse.
There are no paper gaskets on this intake, just the 2 that are listed above.
