A tranny from a 2.8 will not fit on a 305 the bell housing has a totaly different bolt pattern, at least on the automatics, not to sure on a stick.

Thank you very much

Thank you very much for the support! Hopefully, from now on my friend will think twice before arguing with me on the subject.

Argument Ended!!!
