Listen. Get the whole LG4 outta your head... all your really doing is wasting money. Instead of blowing $$dollars on that LG4 that will get you probably nowhere even with cam, think about saving up for either a 305TPI (if you prefer shutting up 350 guys with a smaller motor) or just go with a 350. You have 3 years until you drive. 3 years is a VERY VERY long time to do some work, its not like your taking it to the track anytime soon. You need to be focused on 1 thing, and thats whatever you wanna go with. I was in your shoes when I had my 86 TA ... I was all talk on dropping a 383 stroker in there, and when I got around to redoing the body, I saw rust and sold it. Its basically the same thing here... you wanna do internal work in a very tired 305 but when all your hard work is done, its just gonna blow up, especially with nitrous. External wise... all you really gotta do is subframe connectors, lowering springs, and maybe some other small suspension components. Rims can stay, hood can stay, and paint can stay. Sleepers are alot nicer IMO.
BUT... if I was in your shoes, that car would've been fixed up a little better, sold, and been working on a 4th or 5th one by now, until I got enough money for a car in immaculate condition.
