Your gonna have to do some forum and google seeking my friend.
Also you might want to add whether its tpi/tbi

Know that, there are very few things you can do for a 305 motor, especially a TBI motor, without custom chip tuning. If this is a car that's necessary to have on the road every day, I wouldn't do anything but exhaust and rear gears.

Re: performance mods for a 92 formula?

If it doesn't have to be on the road, then you can get custom chip tuning software/hardware, and play until your heart is content with all kinds of different cams, heads, etc. But - going that route is no cheaper and definitely harder than dropping in a 350.
