     Welcome to the site, if you got the funds you should take out the 305 and put in a LS 350, that will be enough motor for your new transmission.

Its a tbi 305.  And yea i would love an .ls 4.8-6.0 with a Carb conversion. But a good one is hard to find around here
.I'm in south Mississippi.  I already lowered it slightly.preped an ready  for paint
Hardest part deciding color. Original brown baige 2 tone was nice but I'm leaning towards black base wit a ton of rootbeer Pearl.with silver flake. Looks brown/ gold
