My motor builder says for street use or hot rods re use was ok,,but he would never re use for race applications.

I guess everyone has opinions on this...me I just buy new ones every time we remove the heads.

don't know the angles on all the issues about reuse.
I would reference the manufacturer.

cometic has the best gaskets out for v twins.
