When replacing rings on a motor that has 5,700 miles would it be wise to stick the previous gaskets in with hi-temp gasket spray??they seem to look fine not much wear...if I was to buy new anyone know the price?thanks

I think a new viper head gasket is around 40 bucks or so, they are 34 EACH for the sx style engines, and you need one for each cylinder. The viper is a one piece and is way cheaper, dont get that...but anyway if it were MINE i would put a new headgasket in it, but most likely it will be fine if you just spray it with copper gasket spray. I just like having that extra piece of mind for not too much more money. Go ahead and reuse the base gasket with a spray of copper.
