cool deal..but..why a 305 instead of a 350?, and with that considered..why a th400 instead of a th350 if your only running a 305?
not knocking your choices..just curious why you went those 2 particular directions..or was it just the first 2 things you found?

Not bad looking for an 86! You definetly should do a 350. I did the modified 305 route with a cam, headers,tricked out carb, intake and exhaust and ran a 15.18@92mph only! My daily driver 4 cylinder Cobalt ran a 14.95@96mph! Bone stock! Those cars are heavy and need some cubes to get them moving. Good luck with the project.
