Intake manifold installation

I am going to put a weiand stealth intake on my 460. I was wondering if i can reuse the intake manifold gaskets. This motor has only about 1000 miles on it so the gaskets are in good shape. Can i just take the cast iron manifold off and bolt the stealth on? If i absolutely have to take off the old gasket is there anything special that i should know when putting the new gaskets on.

Use new gaskets. The gasket conforms to any defects in the manifold. there is about a 99% chance the old gaskets would leak.
