What size is my engine?

I have a plain, vanilla 1986 Camaro with a V8. I can't reliably determine if it is a 305 or a 350. Can anyone help me? Its carbureted, if that helps.

if it's stock, it's a 305. GM never put a 350 in an 86 Camaro (please don't get on me about the 50 prototypes) and never offered a carbed 350 in any year thirdgen.

Damn, that what I thought. They started putting in 350s in 87, or that is what i've heard.

Looks like I'll be buying a ZZ4 crate motor.
