    Can i re-use a lower manifold gasket?

    i just replaced my lower manifold gaskets about 100 miles ago and the backside rtv seal i made didnt hold...i have it all torn down and the gaskets still look brand new, im wondering if they can be re-used or if they get crushed the first time you tighten them down.
