Top end combo kits?

I have seen combo kits such such as the Dart iron eagle aluminum head system and other kits, that are "bolt on" horspower but are there any of these painless kits that would be worth it to put on a 305 TBI engine? Or are those primarily for the 350's? Becuase i have been debating an upgrade.

Find someone that is upgrading a ZZ4, get the Heads, Cam, and a Holley Projection intake. Headers, TBI mods, and an open element will help alot. Chip burning will round out the package. Expect ATLEAST 300 FWHP @ 5,500.

i'm running those same heads on my 305 with some bowl blending and a backcut on the valves. my combo is much hotter than you can probably get a tbi to work with, but based on the numbers, i'm making about 400fwhp. they are good cylinder heads.

Zonda Man,

It says you are in Gainesville. Do you get together with the Gainesville Muscle Car Club at all? Just wondering because when I was at UF I used to go and meet up with those guys like on Thursday nights out off Archer near the Highway.
