So I got the Roadster running for the year and it has been running great but I am getting a fair amount of seepage at the front of the head. I am running a 6:1 high compression head from Snyders that was checked for flatness. I used a graphite gasket and I run 50/50 antifreeze.

Do you think it is time for a new head gasket? If so, should I go back to copper?
