    Which would you choose?

    IMHO, I'd get the 442 and to the T56 swap! Even a 307 will be a fun DD with a manual, use a hurst shifter and and old school 4spd ball! The H/O should have lighning rods and should stay that way.... Just my .02! You will have a nice ride which ever road you choose!

    How to make a stock 2004R last

    Mine held up well behind my mild olds 350, had the stock 1600 (?) Stall converter,and a large B&M super cooler. It was sloppy with 165, 000 miles on it at the time of the swap.

    What heads will give me the most power out of my sbc 305?

    Re: What heads will give me the most power out of my sbc 305 There is the old saying "run what ya bung" that 305 should serve you well... Letting you get the funds together for a good swap...

    New around here, but not to the GBodys

    Thanks for the welcome! I have lusted after the salon car for years, having a "442 fastback" is pretty cool! @Donutboy97Was just poking fun at it because of "canceled due to buyer resistance" status! Hopes to get out to the barn and get some pics this weekend.
