Stock oil pan braces or not?

im removing my canton oil pan. i was using a one piece blue gasket, arp bolts, and no stock braces.

im going back to the stock pan, and re-using the one piece gasket. it has never been used on a fired engine, and is supposed to be fine for re-use, has anyone heard differently?

then on the stock braces, should i use those or not? the reason im asking is i only have these arp bolts which are short. if i use the braces they wont reach, and i cant go get bolts until tomorrow.

planning to do this swap tonight and try installing the engine again myself. just wondering about re-using my gasket and the braces mainly. do not want any issues once it is actually IN the car.

dammit, forgot to mention why im not considering the braces.

rick91gt made a post a few days ago i remember reading. he used the one piece gasket and arp bolts, without the braces. that was on a canton pan though, just wondering if that same thing would apply for the stock pan.
