The only head for a 305 in my opinion is the L98 aluminum corvette head.
On ebay, you could probably get a set for $500usd.
That way you would drop about 50lbs off of your front end, get a bigger valve(from a 1.84 to a 1.94). You would still have 9.3 compression with that head,too.
Good luck.

World makes the SR Torquer heads for them as well, these would be a good be it slightly more expensive option.
