ive already started a 335 stroker. i know i know its a waste to put money in a 305 but i just want something relativly quick and sounds realy good. what do u have in the holes in ur z hood? i was thinking about putting some stainless steel mesh behind the holes but am still open to ideas.

the interior is in decent shape. the carpet has a few small stains and the seats are in decent shape but i put some nice grey chevy seat covers on the fronts, the back seat tho has quite a few stains and im lookin for some 4th gen seats soon as i get it painted and tinted.
