Engine: 350 firebreathing inches of Small Block Chevrolet
Transmission: A 700R4 that has trouble handling the formentioned 350.
The engine is a 350 right? if so leave the 305 heads on the engine. I have put 305 heads on a 350 before and as long as the heads have bigger valves in them then the stock 305 ones your Ok. The reason people put 305 heads on a 350 is because it's a cheap way to bump compression, and compression usually means more horse. So if it runs good and doesn't give you any problems go with it.
