intake for radical 305( LO3) build-up?

Well , as you all know ( probbly not PABLO though, he was left fumbling with the weel at the GREEN light ) I decided to get jumping on a radical 305(l03) project . Seeing how everyone is always up to dis them , I am destined to prove you wrong ! This is my old 305 from about 2 years ago ( it has been on the garrage floor ever scince). I will be aiming for only the most outrageous specs , I would like some educated opinions ,geared twards my goal , on what kingd of intake I should treat it to ---MPFI , TPFI, DUALCARB W/BLOWER ---let me know . I am looking for 11.2 : 1 copression ratio , 40cc heads and so on . I am mostly trying to piece together what parts to use , and doing the math, right now.Nothing is in stone yet , but soon enough I will be able to blueprint it and then be able to pass a (hopefuly) killer setup to All you people with those 305(lo3's) out there ......later

well , mabie 40cc is a bit SMALL , you get the idea .HA - HA - HA , pablo you must have a real winner of a Pontiac there , seems to me you can't cope w/ the idea that every time I post something that has to do with camaros , you put your 2 cents in .Sorry mommy and daddy wouldn't give you more money for a better car . I have seen your site , and that car .....HOPELESS . Hey , do this , take a big sledge hammer and total it --then buy a camaro w/ LT4 or equivalent and then and only then can you even begin to diss my car .

Money isn't a big concern here, PABLO .Besides , I went to college and got schooling and now make damn good money rather than "pimping it out " ha ha -- I don't have to pimp girls just *** to me al the time ...later

I'll watch Pablo's buildup sooner than yours... :-). I think my budget is a lot closer to his.

Umm...you do realize that once you swap the heads, intake, exhaust and cam (which I'm sure you'll have to do for a "radical" engine), it won't really be an LO3 at all.
On another note, do us all a favor and save the space on this board for non-BS posts.

If I were to build up a 305 I would do this in this order.

1) take block to macine shop have it completly stripped and have it ported and polished.
2) buy a 305 stroker kit for the **** from PAW. then it goes up to a 337 or something like that with balanced flex plate.
3) Get an entire edelbrok power package: idle to 5500 RPM, with high flow MPFI.
4) Excel ignition.
5) Edelbrok headers, and high flow cat, and cat back system.

This the general idea behind the engin concept I call the RWC1.
