Is it seated all the way down ? The gear on the shaft maybe misplaced...what size motor did you replace the 305 with ?

If it is a HEI you might want to check the brain in the disributer- if it isn't your coil it is a good chance to be the brain. Also chech to be sure you have the little rubber pad and the coil pickup in the cap right!!
