Hey, another older bonnie! I got an 86 myself. I would suggest putting in a big block for max power. That engine compartment can fit anything. I'm going more for modest power myself.
Good luck!

I don't know how many chevy 305 parts work for you, but you can do a lot to 305'* to get them up in the Torque.
