305 is a bread and butter motor. Low RPM because of a long stroke to smaller bore ratio. Long strokes = torque, big bores = RPM and horsepower. I don't recall what the bore is on one, but remember that it was the second smallest Chevy ever had, next to the 262 CI offered in the late '70's Monza's. Don't get particularly good milage and pound for pound weigh more than there worth, but are cheap. They can move a Suburban down the road effectively sucking as much gas as a 350, but not a whole lot more. I've long forgotten what the bore to stroke ratio was of the 426 Hemi, but they did have an incredible stroke and were a HP anomoly (freak of nature) that worked very well. That thing would really get up, go, and tear it up...even to then diehard 427 and other big block Chevy fans like myself. These days, I'm older, fatter, slower and drive Dodge/Cummins pickups. Does anyone else's knees bother them when they climb up on the tractors? Sometimes mine sure do.
