Building up a 305 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have been on the fence, due to budget, on rebuilding the 305 already in my '84 chevy truck or doing a 350. I know most will say do the 350, but because I am on a tight budget, is building the 305 in there that bad?

I plan on putting a thumpr cam in it (more for sound, not maximum potential gains), and a set of vortec heads.

What are you guys thoughts? I just want something that is fun to drive, has a little power and sounds good. It wont be a drag strip truck.

Will the 350 vortec heads work on a 305?
