Default gaskets

hey anyone ever re-use rockerbox gaskets? have 05 88"roadking and installing S&S 100 " big bore kit and of course they didn't supply those or breather gaskets. I know not supposed , but man it is tempting? One mates to head and other top gasket, and breather. thanks

How much money have you put into your build? Those missing parts cost about 30 bucks......

I have, but it depended on the condition they come off. As Graham stated, they're about $30. Also, get the updated breather assemblies. Less than $30 for those.
