Lubricate Head Nuts?

[29 Tudor]

I've searched the forum and can't find a definitive answer to this question. Les is silent on the subject. Should the nuts (and head surface) be lubricated before torquing and if so, what do you use? I'm thinking anti seize would be a good choice but I don't want to alter the compression of the head gasket.

Thanks in advance for the information.
