I currently have a 305 in my Malibu. I was going to clean it up and see what I could make with it, but 2 cheap l31 350’s fell into my lap so my plans changed. Interested to see how this engine turns out.

to site,
thx for your inputs and posts
Needing estimated compression ratio on this
I’m building a flat top 305 with 601 heads with 305 head gasket shims hopefully this summer
Block is a 77 std bore no machine work done
Stock crank arp main bolts
Scat rods with arp bolts
OEM flat top pistons for a Monte Carlo ss L69
Been reading a few posts and some say I am looking at close to 11 to 1 but I think it should be closer to 10.25 to 1.
Haven’t disassembled engine or have pistons pressed on rods. So not sure how far down the piston is in the cylinder have .016 head gasket shims. Combustion chamber on heads are 53cc
Thank you
you will be around the limit no more than 10-1 get a good intake cam exuast 305 has a bunch of toque

Nice Caprice but the price scares me the most. What is the weight of 66 C-10?
