cam sensor location tbi 305

im looking for the cam sensor on my 91 305 tbi. I searched online and I keep getting a crank sensor. I guess I will have to dig out my manual. I just moved so finding anything is a job.

No cam or crank sensor. What error code are you fighting 42 ?

If you're talking about a sbc, no cam sensor.
crank sensors came on timing cover on vortec in 96 or 97 iirc
