King Triton & other Master Mechanics
I got this 91 chevy 305 (lO3) TBI that I need to rebuild.
I can do the rebuild no problem, but matching different components to make more power is a downfall for me. That is where you will help out at.
I would love to see 300-350HP but you never know.
I want to keep the TBI & a stock appearance under the hood except for the dual snorkel breather.
I have also been told that the swirl port heads are worth more as a paper weight to they won't be worth porting & polishing.
I think I might have a 350 roller cam block, crank, & rods also, I'll have to check. If I have one, then I'm going to go that route (most 305 internals will work for 350).

In example.....
Heads, Cam, Lifters, intakes.
You get where I'm going? The bottom ends are built for strength not power.

Seems like a question for Super Chevy magazine. About every 3 months one of those magazines does a feature with a chart showing what interchanges with what.
I googled "Chevy interchange"
http://www.speedwaymotors.com
search for "interchange"
