I picked up my dc 4-2-1 header today:D I'd like to know if it's okay to reuse gaskets? I only have 30k on them, the tech at honda said the one on the bottom is okay to reuse but I'm not sure about the one to the motor.

the one in between the engine and the header (metal) should be okay to use. Its the collector gasket at the bottom of the header that I might be concerned with. You should be able to use them both though.

I reused both when I did mine and no problems. Had the header on for about 2k miles now.

well my brother and I were gonna install the header today but one of the bolts on the heatshield got stripped. so now I have to cut the damn heatshield off. anyone else have this problem? I did however install my ground wires from "happie" and that went well.
