Your 305 and 350, what years are they? Not all parts interchange unless the two engines are the same year. Even then, some of the 305s and 350s made 1987 and newer are roller cam and some are not.

Re: 305 to 350 parts swap

the cam had better fit I'm going to do that swap tomorrow after school!!! as far as i know if the engine had the provisions for a roller cam and if that is in fact what you are swapping it should work as far as the heads go if they were on your 350 granted you have the same block they should work on your 305.
But why are you downsizing again?
