I also had a 305,I got rid of it and got the crate engine with around 230hp 300tq ("official" engine name escapes me) $1400. Its a great engine, and I believe the 330hp one is $2000, which is a pretty good price. It's hard to beat a brand new crate engine. I say go for one of the two you listed. I went from around(I think) 160-170hp to around 230hp which is a very very nice leap. But really I think it's a good idea that you wont regret.

Also, do you have to pass emmissions?
