Spacer or gasket?

You can reuse the gaskets if they aren't damaged.

When I did mine, the original gasket lost a couple of small chunks...I highly recommend using new gaskets, or at least having a spare on hand.

To be on the safe side, buy an extra one and if you don't end up needing it just return it.

Thanks for the advice, bought another gasket..

have a question though, after install as the weather is cooling, if i don't let the engine idle for a little while it will stall, and i noticed that if i rev it alittle it will stall in park (engine cold). is this common or did i miss something, btw i have a throttle body spacer installed. this was done before the spacer, and there was no problems with stalling.
thanks in advance for any help
