I would use the 84 flywheel with the appropriate clutch for behind the v8.

junk 305 on the stand after i pulled it

blazer during the 3 week remodel

motor i got to put in it its actually bored to a 355

4-bolt main

oil pan off the 305 had a 1 peice rear mail the block was an 84 2 peice rear main seal... new pan cost like 230 or something like that i don't think so so i dug out the welder and the die grinder
