unfortunately there wasn't much knowledge of how to develop tbi at the time i had and spent lots of money on that car. if i had i tto do all over again i would jsut drop in 4.10 gears, LT1 cam, get a carb intake and make an adaptor plate, drop a 3k stall and a shift kit in it, tune and run 12's.
everyone cries about the swirl port heads on the tbi cars, too bad the cam is so small that it can't even take advantage of the stock flow available.
as far as building a 305 being a waste, like i said before, if you have a good running engine start collecting parts. whatever you can bolt on now, go for it. once you build the solid 350 you really want do the swap. there is no need to pull a perfectly good engine until a suitable replacement is ready.
