i would suggest hooker p/n 2055 or edelbrock TES

hooker longtubes are for highly modded motors.

I would only consider the Hooker 2055's, Macs, or SLP's. The others either are low quality or semi performance. Long tubes are not needed for your set-up. Save your money on the T stat and stage 2 chip. Off the shelf chips are junk and will make your car run like poo.

What do you do about the Thermac on the 305 TBI? Is there some sort of "adapter" available to be able to reattach it to to the header?

Talking about on the 2055's here....

yeah you can get new heat stove kits, and some even come with the headers.
