Re: Any hot 305s here?
A buddy has some stock smog heads from a '77 350. he thinks they are the 882 heads (1.94 valves), low compression which would work with the little blower. I know the 882s don't quite flow like certain newer heads but I still may be able to get 375, maybe even close to 400 hp with these heads depending on how much boost I run. I understand some say they are crack prone but that is supposedly due to excessive heat. But if you don't let it get too hot they should be fine. There is a trick to prepping them that helps minimize the overheating I guess. I only bring up these 882s because I can get them for free. I guess I could buy newer better flowing heads but thats gonna cost xxx for maybe an extra 25-50 hp versus the 882s??
