Default ARP Flywheel Bolts - Reuse Once or Not?

Has anyone had any experience reusing ARP flywheel bolts? This is a 9 bolt application and I'm trying to determine whether it's safe to reuse them once. I know, it's safer just to replace them but I'd hate to pitch some perfectly good bolts if that's the case especially if new ones are around $50. Thanks

We re-use them until we cant get them off, or torque them down because they are worn down and the socket wont grab

never had a failure, 6 bolt or 9 bolt, just be sure to torque to 60ftlbs, and use red loctite.

The flywheel will wear out first!
