High Performance
How can I make a 1984 305 engine high performance?
I have a 4 barrel carburetor, I have headers, dual exhaust, auto transmission out of a Berlinetta. Also have an electric fuel pump. I’m putting engine, rear end and transmission in a 1964 Chevy P/U out of the 1984 Berlinetta. What else can I do to make this high performance?
The money you’d spend trying to make a truly high performance engine out of that 305, you could buy a 350. The 350 would be a simple bolt in job and you’d then be way ahead of the curve on power over the 305. After that, with the aftermarket part availability for the ever popular 350, the sky is the limit on what you can do.
%&*#, if you’re willing to drop the dough, I’ve seen 350s in daily drivers putting out over 500 horses at the rear wheels. I’ve even built a couple of trucks with 350s that had to have tractor weights under the rear for weight to create traction just so you could keep it on the road on a hard pull off the line.
