I did the wife's last weekend. Stock manifolds that had never been off. Sprayed the bolts down with PB Blaster the night before. No problems. They don't thread out real smoothly, though. But no threads were damaged.

I bought mine off ebay brand new for $45 shipped.
Also if you're willing to spend about $45 on gaskets, percy's make a soft alumium blow-proof gasket set. I got 'em, they work great and they don't leak at all.
