what should i expect from l98 heads and intake on a 305
I have an lo3 on my 89 rs and i got L98 heads and intake off of an 89 formula and i was wondering what i could get out of putting that on a 305. i was told that i could lose compresion some how is it true? How munch more horse power sould i expect form it? and how much faster would i be at the track with that set up? thanks for any help

You'll lose close to half a point of compression, which will lower performance, you'll flow a little more, which should raise, all in all it will become a trade off probably just slightly more biased to a gain maybe.
If you're going to do it the only way I could think of making it worth it is to port the snot out of it and have it decked to recover some of the lost compression.
