ok I am in college and Did not know if there was anything that I could put on to my 305, to boost the Horsepower, as well as fit on a 350 5.7 liter which i plan to switch to later.

Im just looking to add a lil kick to my car, that would be feasible to do in the schools parking lot.



thanks for the help in advance

 

If you have a TBI, put in either an open element filter or the "truck" type higher aircleaner lid. Both are fairly cheap and will give you a little boost in power.

 

I have an CC quadra jet Carb ... should i just go out and grab an K&N air filter?

 

Good idea, or get the HO dual snorkel air cleaner.

If you can swing headers that would be a good idea.

 

Do you know how much HP I would gain doing either? because it seems a lot of money just buying an air filter ...

 

You might get 5hp from the KN at most, maybe 2-3hp, the dual snorkel would get you a little more.

the headers would be a 15-20hp gain estimated.

 

Almost anything you buy for your 305 will physically bolt onto a 350. A K&N filter is a good investment because you'll never need another filter, you'll just need to buy a $12.00 kit next year to clean it. That kit will last a long time, too.

 

What if I were to make an cold Air Intake for my carb ... thats possible right? maybe even dual cold air ? any flames before i even think about it?

 

Look for one of these in the boneyard. Just concentrate on getting parts that you can use on your 350 later, like exhaust - intake - or even an open element air filter. Peace
