as long as the rubber is in good shape, sure!

I reused mine and have an extra set that came with the 6.0.

thanks for the info both you guys.

from the pics that the guy sent me of the ls6 intake, they look to be in good shape.
there was only 20k mi on it.

if they turn out to be messed up when i get home, i'll give you a holler colby, to see if you still have them.

I think the car ones are seperate o-rings where as the truck ones have all four orings attached to a single piece of plastic.

I'm only going off pictures as I've never held a car intake, but it looks like there are grooves around each port on the intake that they sit in much like the groves for the valve cover gaskets.
