    160 flywheel hp 4brl 305 1986.

    I remember seeing that somwhere.
    had a rebuilt 355SB chevy
    it lasted 42,000km
    Got another rebuilt 355SB
    it lasted 62km.
    I still have not had a powerful engine.

    Yeah I think we need a few more HP ratings off different parts...just to be a little more accurate, unless of course, he's already found the one hes wanted out of all of the HP ratings he's already got. When this happens to me, I just revert back to my old method, it gos like this: Eenie Meenie Minee Moe!! He! He! He!

    Hey LanceX - here's another opinion for you - I have a 1985 305 TPI - my books say---- 305 2bbl - 150 @ 4000 rpm - 305 4bbl - 165@4200rpm - 305 TPI - 190@4800 rpm(IrocZ) - I've been told that it's great for a boat anchor - good luck

    OK, I hate to drag on the thread longer, but what are the torque specs on the 305? I see HP, but it takes time and revs to make HP. I just want to know what kind of low end these thing have. Compare it to my vin9 442 307 Im buying. 180HP and 255ft-lbs. Girlfriend should love it.
