Take the block to a salvage yard. Let them have it.
Pick up a rebuildable 350 shortblock.
Yes, I'm serious about that.

a used 350 is cheaper than rebuilding a 305 and it's a better engine -4" or bigger bore forever!!!!

It's up to you
You need to decide what you want from the car as to determine what kind motor you want....you want a car thats easy on gas and dependable,use the 305...If you want a bad*ss,go with a 350,383,400....
