VE Head Bolts

Does anybody know if VE headbolts are reusable? The engine overheated and blew the headgaskets (thankfully thats it) I just cant find a thread that mentions it.

looking at the FSM, they don't have the (x) indicating replace. I would recommend new ones if you can, though.

Your car had the same problem mine had with the head gasket. I rebuilt the entire motor and I did reuse my head bolts. For assurance you could replace them but I reused mine. And mine is also a 5spd even though that doesn't matter.
