Buddyclub Header didn't have a gasket included

My Buddyclub header didn't have a gasket in the box. Is the stock gasket fine?

I have never had an issue re-using stock exhaust gasket or donut.

Intake gasket however is an absolute must, just like a head gasket.

Meh, I bought new gaskets (both the one between the block and the header, as well as between the header and cat (doughnut) when I replaced my header and cat. Probably unnecessary, but they weren't expensive so I just got them along with a few other maintenance items.

When I put it that way, it sounds like spending money for the sake of spending money...
