My car has been loosing coolant lately. I noticed that the top of my PCV breather has more condensation on it now and does not burn off the water any longer, even though the engine is warmed up. The condensation looks like a milk shake color. I don't smell any coolant when It's running and it seems to run fine with no overheating. My car has ARP head bolts, AFR heads and stock GM graphite gaskets. Do you guy's think It's a head Gasket?

Thanks guy's, I think I am just going to rip off the heads and take a look at everything. I have been spraying this engine for a year and a half and am curious what every thing looks like. I debating if I should just bite the bullet and buy an all forged 418.

Take a laser thermo gun and aim it at each primary for each cylinder if coolant is getting in there it should kill the plug or do somthing to it. I found out which cylinder it was when my car was running b/c the #2 primary was about 200 degrees cooler After you do that yank the plug out on the cylinder(s) you think i tmight be
