Hi all,
I'm new to this group, and have a couple of questions.
I just picked up an 86 Camaro project car with a 305 in it. The engine has about 150K miles, and the poor car has been neglected and runs poorly. It has poor acceleration and the transmission doesn't shift very smoothly. It needs some work.
Question is, should I stay with the 305 and rebuild it with performance parts or just go to a 350?
I don't really need it to be a rocket, just a self respecting Camaro will do. I plan on opening up the air intake and exhaust a bit to help it breath a little better, but I don't plan on taking it to the track.
If the 305 rebuild is a reasonable option, are there any rebuild kits that you would recommend?
Any other suggestions? Should I consider some suspension upgrades?
