yea i put an edelbrock cam and intake manifold in my 1988 chevy pickup *1500*, added a hypertech chip, and advanced the timing 3 degrees, and my truck hooks up and goes, no complaints at all, the 305 is extremely underrated, and in my opinion i can keep up with any stock 350 with the little bit i did to my so called "puny" 305. My question was, where did you get the exaust for ur truck im lookin for something loud, obnoxious, and able to scare the old ladies
