Yes if they're not damaged in any way. Also remember to clean out the thread holes.

You can only reuse them if they are still within tolerance. Get them measured with a stretch gauge. Dont just reuse them without checking or it could end up more costly

I cant trust it because im want to aim for 300bhp dont want something to go wrong.

Thanks
