I swapped intakes with new fel-pro gaskets less than a year ago and I made a mistake that is now forcing me to remove the intake. Do I need to replace the gaskets or can I leave the existing ones?

(2-valve NPI/PI style intake gaskets)

Yes, technically you can reuse them. I would not even fret about it.

Headgaskets really need to replaced though.

I thought so. I'm having to pull this intake off a second time and don't want to have to do it a third time. My new motor is almost finished and its frustrating having to mess with this stock one when I'm so close to pulling it out.

just make sure they aren't all buggered up and they will be fine.
