Ok.. im not new to gbody cars..my first was bought in 1986..it was a 1979 monte that i drove for 10 years +..
Ok so i like the 305 chevy motor..frikin bulletproof!
My question is why is everybody so against the little small block? I had a 1973 mustang with a 302 in it and not one person that rode in it said" you gotta go bigger" It was fast.. Why dont we associate the smaller block chevy's with power?
I am building my 1983 malibu and was going to throw a few bucks at it..for a reliable cruiser with a bit of gitty up.
I am not planning on a rebuild but just a simple carb, intake,distributor,new valve covers and a air cleaner.
sense i am already taking it apart should I just change the cam and lifters also?
I was thinking of getting the edelbrock performer stick. Has anyone installed that one? and if so how did it perform? Did you install another brand, any suggestions would be very helpful.
Robert
