Roller.
Yea, LT1 is a good cheap upgrade.
Find those on ebay or the like. Many people with LT1's are yanking their cams to go bigger. Don't need the lifters, you can reuse your existing ones.
No big idle change, but it will have a bit more HP across the board.

Re: Camshaft Question
in a 305 TBI engine? I think you need to remain pretty tame. Check on the TBI forum, more guru's specific to those problems over there.
