RE: 265??
if someone is giving you the two engines,i would go with the c.i.d..you can make compression with the 305 depending what head you put on it.if your having to buy one of these motors,then i would get a little more money together and buy a 350.i got a set of 305 heads that i pulled off a motor and they will make compression,i look them up and i cant remember the # but they have 60cc compression chambers,there out there you just have to find them.the 305 heads are good for building compression,they dont flow that good.

They both made about the same power if you equate them with the same rating the high performance 265 might have made a little more. We ran one in the 70s with two 4bbls it had a bit of work done to it it was built to run in the k stock class. I would have to agree though the 350 would be a better option.

There should be a casting number by the bell housing on the block. Certion 265s had some weird stuff no filter no side mounts I dont think they had accessory brackets either if you could id it as a hi po one it might be worth something.If you have a 4 bolt 305 either its been changed from a 2 bolt or its a 350 they didnt make a 4 bolt 305.
