305 Heads
Are there any good heads for my 91 RS 305. I think my valves must be messed up because they sound odd. Will this be very helpful for my engine.

I'm with the walking Steak.
The heads you have are a good base if you wasnt to do it on the cheap as well as learn during the process. Look for a thread by Sitting Bull, it's a very good starting point.
Or you could do what many others do and get S/R torquers 305's. :shrug:

Yes those heads are pure crap, junk them as fast as possible. Look for some 081 305 TPI heads. I wouldn't go with World heads, i'm not a big fan of them in anyway, they need a major port job to be any good at all.

Yeah the TBI heads suck. Get a set of 081s from the 305 TPI cars or the 87-up carbed cars. Then port them and install them. From what I've heard, you won't even feel like you have the same car.

Yes im thinking about getting a new cam also. But the sound i was talking about is like a rattling noise with a little bit of clunking. (haha sorry but thats what i hear)
Now my car is TBI, would it matter if I got the TPI Heads.
Also , who would do porting, because i do not know crap about that.

Check the Yellow Pages for a machine shop that can do the porting.

Its your TPI, they top out at 4000rpm, the induction system is all wrong for anything higher.
