the only thing I can think of right off is the stock heads don't really hold up when you run it hard for a long period of time. usually they get hot a start smoking off one bank or the other. they are old motors and don't really remember alot about them.

i wouldn't use it cuz it's a small bore engine. not much of anything power wise...because of the small bore you don't have much for cylinder head choices as it would have to have miniature valves. all in all. don't waste your money. 305 is the smallest engine i'd ever wanna build.

good for an antique car but not good for muddin, depends on what you plan to do with it.

My chevy V8 ID book says they produced the 267 from 1978-81.  3.5" bore and 3.48" stroke , 2 bolt main.
