Hey guys, i just wanted some help on mods. I know the best thing for me to do would be to swap the 305 for 350, but i wanna keep the 305. I don't want to much horses, maybe around 290-300. I know the 305 is known as the 'boat anchor' but i still love it. Anybody suggest any cams, headers, exhaust, you the works. Any advice will help. Thanx.

For exhaust. i'de get a set of edelbrock TES headers and full 3" single exhaust.. thats about all I can suggest til we know what your starting with

the 305's main weakness is in the heads.

its the tpi, 818- if i was to stroke it, what would it make 327-335 i don't know, suggest any kits. Blower sounds way out of my bugdets league.
DaMoNe6969 - " i'de get a set of edelbrock TES headers and full 3" single exhaust" can i get these from edelbrock.com? Slponline offers i couple of things like cold air box, the intake runners. Holley also has a throttle body aswell. Never really done any mods so i don't really know what they have to offer. So are these items any good?

you can get the headers thru summitracing.com or jegs.com, the stroker kit makes it 335, that kit can be found at enginekits.com, there's a few companies that make the larger throttle body. I don't think you'd need a different air intake tho, there's mods you can do to the stock one to make it flow just as good, take a trip over to the boards on thirdgen.org in the TPI section and read up, you'll learn probably everything you need to know.
