What is the maximum possible displacement of a 305 that is bored and stroked?

Actually, that's the largest size that it makes any sense to spend any money on. If you make it bigger than that, start with a 4" bore block (aka 350).

To answer the question...

You can use a 3.75" stroke crank that, on a 4" block, would make a 383. This makes a 335 out of your 305, and that is not including any overbores.

The most you can overbore is 0.060"... thats pushing it though. Just go 0.030" over.
