Did you spray copper on the gasket?

oh and to Mwolf83, I did call ARP and they said as long as it's not quite obviously stretched, you can re-use them as much as you want. If the OP used their moly lube when assembling them, there is probably some left on the threads and washers so there's no need to take them off, and he would run the risk, as he mentioned of loosening the studs themselves.
