Well the bad news: Your LO3 305 TBI in its stock form when new had 170 HP/255TQ. After 17 yrs it may have less ,but who knowns without having it dyno'd for a baseline.
More bad news, you can install 1 5/8 headers, new hi-flow cat & 3" mandrel bent exhaust and might gain and I said might 20HP. Nothing else you do with bolt ons will NOT make any big gains.
HP is not cheap and if you go with heads & cam you could make 250 HP, but is it worth it. that is up to you. A standard off the shelf GM 350 will give you more HP/TQ without out breaking the bank.
Do a little more reseach on the subject and then decide.....Just my opinion.
