My camaro is running a 305.... Ok maybe it has 300 hp to the rear wheel at 400 ft lbs of torque but its the numbers matching block for my 79 maro. Rockin the 305 till I blow it up then have a 327 out of an older camaro to throw in next!
if sumone was to be leaning over the carb dat wudve ruined his weekend ..ha ha
its a muscle car, so u noe it cud take a harsh beatin in the worst environment and still make it out okay
im gettin a 78 z28 i already got headers,307ci heads (69camaro),K&N filter i just need an aluminum intake,carbspacer,GM-MSD,1.6rockers, 30degree valve job,summit cam .224 @ .50, & a double-roller timing chain.
and teflon coat the piston crowns,piston skirts and the bottom of the intakemanifld
You should've put dome-top pistons, oversized valves, oversized high performance cam, high performance racing rods(for the high RPM's), high performance timing chain and gears, a hi-rise high performance intake, and a big 4-barrel carb on it.
You probably already have that camaro purring like a kitten and biteing like a pitbull by now but the seemed like it just needed timed a little or a plug wire was in the wrong spot. Well 2 wires I guess can't have just 1 wrong lol
with gas being like it is its easy to find a chevy bbc like a 454 to put in these old muscle cars. if your looking for horse power and torqe. chevy small block are ok but why limit your self.
I know my friend, I had a 305 on my 84 Z28 with worn out valves & rings, white smoke comin' out the exhaust, & my Camaro burned EVERY 5.0L Mustang that staged against me at red lights!, I wish I could get my hands on an Edelbrock Q-Jet, but it's all good tho cuz Sean Murphy Induction out here in Huntington Beach Ca makes a performance Q-Jet carburetor for STOCK 305's!, & there are Carburetor shops in Ontario Ca that have made it to the pages of Chevy High Performance magazine that rebuild Q-Jets
theres a entirely new distributor in it, new plugs and wires, (this is when i first started it after a huge overhaul) maybe ill put that restorere thing formula in it, there never was A/C on it, and the original carb was a rochester q-jet 2 barrel, and the original motor was a 250 six with a 4speed( i wish i could get those back)
Take that 305, tune it up, replace the ignition coil, cap, and rotor, new plugs and wires, when you change the oil, put it a can of "Engine Restorer" 8 cylinder formula, REBUILD THE QJET CARBURETOR THAT'S ALREADY ON THE CAR, PUT ON A FLOWMASTER DUAL EXHAUST, remove the A/C system to give you at least 40more hp, AND THAT 305 WILL SING!
dude do u live on west saanich rd? cuz if you do im at the lion of judah well im six doors down toward your house, with a dune buggie its not running at the moment but it will be!
i had a 83 camaro with a 305. i got the car at 84k miles and i beat the hell out of the whole time i had it until 243k. it still ran perfect... dam good car.
Nice car man! I just got a 1979 El Camino with a 305 in it that I plan to race at some point. I am in the rebuilding stage though right now. For 15 that is an excellent first car!
Well buddy (surf05rdr) its not looks that win races. I think your car is pretty kick ass man.....especially for a first car with a 15 year old owner. Nice man, keep it up with the American muscle.
A 383 stroker will beat a 305, its not a stock 305, (307 + hp and 340 torque), also lets get this straight, im 15 years old, this is my first car, so of course its the nicest car too me, that's how it always is, at least I didn't go out and buy a Honda civic (or 350z:S) I don't care if our 383 its a hell of allot more powerful, I also think a 350z is a ricer, (my opinion). Why the hell do you even see it to be so important to pick on a 15 year old with a ruff shape Camaro with a hypo 305 in it?
im dont think i am classified as a ricer i have a 350z but i also have a 65 impala with a 383 stroker and a 2 speed power glide that will blow that 305 out of the water
No get a holly 600 cfm hollys best

totally on this one with you.
shouldnt matter how big a engine is or how small.
a car like that should be take with pride and not be downed by some dipshit ricer kid who thinks thier hot shit.
I own a 91 camaro Rally Sport, and Im gonna rebuild my 305 also.
people like 79Camaro321 are the kinds that shows anything good enough for them, should be good enough for everyone else.
