@Dodgeram591 Actually, a 305 has plenty of torque, just no horsepower. I have a 1986 K10 (Pickup) 4x4, with a 3 speed, with granny, and a 305. And it has plenty of torque, but it's all bottom end. The 305, make's 240 LBS of torque, at 2500 RPM. And 150 HP, at 4500 RPM, or something like that. But these engine's were built, to pull, not to race. Plus my model, and newer, were built around the EPA, which killed the 305. It was choked to death, because of the EPA.

@johnprice1000 Yea, Ive got a 97 With the 305, people always tell me its a whimpy motor untill they ride shotgun and feel that its got balls and the low end torque twists the truck.
