Are you planning on keeping the stock engine or building one up
305's came in 3 flavors
Carb older and computer controlled, not the best or most reliable
TBI newer and very reliable, but extremely underpowered and hard to get serious power from
TPI Only port injection availible, the intake design falls short in the upper RPMs but its the best platform availible
350's were only TPI automatics and were barely more powerful than the manual 305 TPI
All were 2 bolt main
A serious build would skip the stock systems for a better platform
And please dont go carb. That jsut screams "Im too lazy to figure out fuel injection" -- "If you have complete control over the damned thing, you're not going fast enough." - Carrol Smith

350hp is about where the 350TPI maxes out N/A
350TPI
Good set of heads
Moderate cam
Headers
Ported plenum and base
Some sort of aftermarket runners ported to match
Good shift kit and a re-geared rearend
You will need a tune to accomidate all the mods thou
Might also go with a 100-150 shot of nitrous if you just need the extra stuffing
Good luck and post what you do
Im building pretty much the same with with a 91 GTA right now
Difference is I plan on fabing up a M90 mount -- "If you have complete control over the damned thing, you're not going fast enough." - Carrol Smith
