Dude, seriously, lay off the caps and learn to punctuate and spell. If you have a 305, yank it out of your car and use it as a door-stop, or a boat anchor. I also hear they make nice coffee tables.

Most 305TPI's run high 14's low 15's STOCK....

With decent bolt ons they can run low 14's high 13's especially a stick....

I have an 88 T/A with auto.....
Mods:
Cold air,gutted maf,airfoil,ported plenum,timing @ 12 degrees,afpr@49psi,rebuilt trans,torque converter,gutted cat,flows,msd,wires,suspension mods....

IT runs right with low 14/high 13 sec cars....

With cam,gears,headers,traction it would be an easy mid/low 13 sec car...

Of course a 350 with these mods should be in the 12's.......

I am running low 14's in my 305 with a few bolt-ons. I had thought about modding it up but why the hell would I. Like stated above just go out and buy a 350 with those bolt-ons you will be running a good second or more less. Just start bolting on suspension parts and things that will carry over to a larger motor and have fun that way. I will be driving a canyon carver around until my 406 will be built.

My mods and times are in my sig, one note of interest is that with stock heads and stock cam it ran 13.85 at 99 MPH.

I ran 14.6 in my 5-speed 305 with stock heads, stock cam, stock exhaust manifolds and crappy stock Y-pipe. My mods were AFPR, K&N's and Edelbrock cat-back.

The 14.6 was with a 2.2 60 ft and crappy street tires so i know there's more there.

I just did headers and a custom Y-pipe along with upgrade from 7mm Autozone wires to 8mm MSD wires and new NGK plugs.

Hope that'll get me into the lower 14's with still stock heads and cam. maybe a lucky 13.9 if I can borrow some ET Streets from a buddy.

NOS, A brand of nitrous. Damn that stupid movie.

Anyhow I ran 14.5 with a few bolt ons. Plan to shoot some "nitrous" this year while building the 350.
