    just my $.02, if your gonna spend some money beefing it up, spend a couple more bucks and get a better motor. theres 350sb all over the place. honestly it doesnt matter how much money you put in to a 305, your going to be disapointed.

    just my opinion. :rolleyes:

    Gotta agree with what Kustom says... Unless you enjoy changing valve stem seals/guides !! ;)
