Yes we re-used the bolts. And yes make sure you have a professional clean them up for you. I took mine to the local machine shop/parts store. I think it cost me $50 and took him maybe an hour. Grab your self some PB Blaster and clean the bolts and the holes well. You should be good to go.

I re-used my bolts only because I didn't plan well enough in advance to get new ones. New ones can be had from the dealer or Riffraff carried them: Riffraff Diesel: Ford Manifold Bolt Set

Torque value is 40-45ft/lbs

Good luck!
