small block head gasket leaking?
408 stroker 360, high compression around 12:5. I noticed some antifreeze under the car and put it on the lift and saw wet spots on both sides of the heads where they meet the block in. I over heated the car pretty bad last year and have eddy jeahs on it. Did I smoke the head gaskets or wrapped the heads or is this common on a high compression engine or should I tear it apart? I can email pix

no motor should even leak any fluid. I would start by taking off the heads and looking at the gaskets. Also have the heads checked for flatness as alum warps pretty easy from what I have read.
I'm not sure how well copper head gaskets will work with alum heads but you may have to go that way.
