I would just buy a carbureted 350 if I was you, unless your buddy is practically giving away that 305. I would stay with a carbureted engine anyway.

depends on what kind of issues you mean. it will bolt directly in, but may need other related items to run

The 83 computer was for a 4bbl, crossfire, or tbi injected 05 with a 200r4 trans....The 95 did not have any of those items....you will need the correct computer for your purpose.

so i got the 95 305 was going threw it and decided to scrap it cause it wasnt worth the money to rebuild but have been thinking of putting in a 67 305 out of a truck and just switching the car to run on a carb instead and am building a chevy 409 up to put in but that is a slow rebuild going top of the line on everything for it
