The heads came with the engine and a local guy said it would not be a problem if I used the heads with a bigger cam That's the last time I listen to him!!!!!!

Oh yes, I just found out that my Edelbrock heads came in. Will the problem I had happen again?

look at your displacement
You won't be able to make 305 heads work to your advantage b/c the compression will be to high to get the power you are looking for. so if those edelbrock heads are for a 305 good luck working at the shop!

Oh, no. I had a f*cked up time the first time with those damn heads, I wouldn't dare buy another set! I bought the heads for a 350.
