Jetting is a standard "tuning" operation. Unless it was optimized on the 305, it probably could have used some tuning via jetting even then. Going from winter to summer can require rejetting to keep it optimized.
So, just going from a 305 to a 350 is not the only reason you probably need to rejet. And, you probably do need to rejet, both primaries (we are talking a non-CC q-jet, right?), and rods/hanger for the secondaries.
