new pacesetter gasket

hey i was hearing all these things about the pacestter gasket being junk, and then i gound one person mention theres came with a copper one, and everyone else didnt know anything about it. well my LT's came with a copper one as well, so is this one a good one? or do i still get the GM factory one? the gasket actually looks good but i was wondering if anyone else has recieved theres with a copper gasket and have used, or know if they are good?
-thanks

The newer copper gaskets are good. But, you can also reuse the stock gaskets and sell the copper ones.

I reused my 120k mile stock gaskets and they are holding up just fine.

I got the copper one back in June with my Pacesetters but I had already purchased the tried and true factory gaskets so I used them. The copper ones do look pretty good though.

just use your stock ones or buy some new stock ones and they will work perfect!

My pacesetters came with paper gaskets, junk imo. I reused the stockers.

So we should have a poll as to whether we should
a. re-use stalker
b. use copper
c. buy new stalker
i dont know how to make a poll so if someone can make it happen, or we can just start posting our choice as we go
