Is this a 4by or 2by? What are your overall intentions...driver, drag truck, tow rig?

The cheapest and easiest would be to swap the 305 for a 350, keep your 350 trans, and depending on the year of your truck...swap out the 10 bolt for a 12 bolt. If your truck is older than 81 you should already have the 12 out back. This combo has been done a bazillion times and is very reliable and basically bulletproof.
