Quick Quetsion: 99 OHV, reusuable upper intake gasket?

[ragajungle]

Well as long as my Bronco II is down I may as well do something useful....so on to the OTHER broken truck. I wanna do Valve Covers on my 99 x sport OHV. It looks like the best way to tackle this would be to pull the upper intake.

Is the upper gasket/s reusable?


FYI the Ex has been sitting waiting to save up to install my new tranny (no Rev) valve covers are toast.

When I did my valve cover gaskets there was an upper intake included.

Felpro?

Update: yes the Felpro PN for the 99 OHV valve cover gasket kit comes with the upper intake set.

I belive they are not. there cheap so why even try as its just one more spot that could trun into a vacuum leak if you do reuse them.
