Exhaust Manifold Gaskets

Most people I hear say use stock gaskets, but do they mean the ones that are on the car NOW or get replacement ones from GM?

p.s. Header install obviously...

Get new ones. They are very cheap. Used gaskets will not seal the same. I used ones from a Chevy dealer. I think I paid $15 for them.

Yep, new stock ones are fairly cheap and I have never had a problem with them leak using the stock bolts.
