aluminum 305 heads
does anyone know where to get some aluminum 305 heads that are at least 58cc or less combustion chambers?

I believe the heads you're looking for would be L98 vette heads.
They'd be the closest thing to a bolt on, that's compatible with your engine.
Or you could go with the LT1 head retrofit...
That's sort of a project though, cause they aren't made to bolt on to our blocks, and they need to be modified pretty extensively.

No modification to cooling passages required.
There aren't any exhaust cross-over ports in them, but that's not a big deal.
