Yes the 305 was a dog ,but HP #'s were low in the 80's and early 90's ,you probably remember the Monte Carlo SS's in the mid 80's they had the 305HO and it was a mere 190hp ,the only good thing was it was a SBC and could be swapped with any decent built SBC or built fairly cheap with cam ,heads ect,to make some decent power,why do you think the Buick GN was king of the hill in the 80's .But as far as the PB cars there are some good buys I would be interested in the 454SS they were a sweet truck .Chico(pops)

I liked the builds on the show "trucks" when stacey david was the host. He was the best host for that show, in my opinion

cool. I do not have TV at this point (by choice) that is why I am on the net so much. I wish I could order just a few channels I want, but that has been a request for a long time (i used to be "the cable guy") that I know is not going to happen.

if you don't have it as a daily driver, at least throw a mullet wig in the glove box for when you do cruise around.

I have the same engine in my firebird (305 TBI) as the camaro that was on the show. Yes, it's not the most powerful, but it had decent torque and the fuel economy was actually pretty damn good (once got almost 30 mpg's on a highway trip), and even with 154K on it, it still got in the low 20's before I got my grand prix. Will always love that car, flowmaster sounded great on it, friends always loved it, and I even looked good in it without a mullet!!! Was looking forever for a bolt on cold air kit for it, almost made my own dual snorkel intake after awhile, but after the rust started to hit and the seats started to rip I gave up on modifying it.
