What Cars Will My Camaro V8 305 Fit Into??

I wrecked my camaro and now i am either looking for another camaro body or a body of another car that the engine will still fit into. Im pretty sure a firebird will work and most of the camaro RS's. If anyone has any idea and could give me a list of there ideas it would be greatly appreciated.

Cram that bitch into a Mini - not one of the new ones either, or a Spectrum, Yugo, Festiva or Fiat, and leave everything else bone stock.

I have one (SBC) sitting in my garage from my old camaro right in front of a 81 chevette, be careful what you ask for!

Beauty, you'd get a lot of pink slips with that combo!

hell yeah, and it'd be so easy as hell too, no ECM to mess with, motor is totally old school, and on the other side of the garage is the 700r4 to back it up. I've heard hte rear end on thos things can actually take some pwoer too?

I'd laugh my ass off! Paint it all oldschool... black with flames and moon hub caps, get the little flame thrower for the exhaust. Have to go with a roll cage though and maybe some meatier tires... might blow your cover.


You could call it "sudden death" or put it in the license plate "sdn dth"

actually to tie two topics together I'll go with the recipe for destruction there and drive it to protests about elevating fuel prices and tell 'em hey, I drive a commuter car, slightly altered econobox.

oh, already named the "evil T" as it's really a pontiac t1000

I dont want any modifications im just wondering what cars i could just slip the engine into and it would just fit right up. I dont wanna mess with a bunch of things to get it to fit. But what cars or bodies could i get that the 305 would just fit into.

Well, i'm pretty sure you get just get it into most of the GM cars and trucks from the 80's to the early 90's. If you pick another maro or firebird, why not just get one with a 350? If you have bolt on mods done to the 305, they will just bolt right up to the 350. I have a 305tpi and i love it to death, but after a while, whatevery one else said was right, it's a boat ancher. So much more potential with the 350. The 305 is a good motor, "just weak in the knees". (Quote from 89iroc)

oh sorry, got a little off topic there. 305 will mount up with just about any car/truck that had 302, 305, 307 350. Most small block GM mounts are interchangable. The trick is, what car will accept the motor for the engine mgmt. system?

actually speaking of rats a couple years ago there was an omni that outran the cops it was sortas funny for like 20 to 30 seconds you hear a big block screaming then you hear a loud noise (roarinfg 427 ) fly past at easily over 100 easily (probably closer to 150) then you hear it scream away..................................]
after that totaly went awy you hear sirens then about anouther 20 to 30 seconds you see the cops go by they looked like slow sluggish terds it was hillarius
needless to say about a week later my buddie tried to sell me a strong running 427
i chuckled (at the time i was only like 13 and of course broke as a kjgj and also had noi idea what it was and thought it was the motor out of a regular omni) wish i had snagged it up long time ago though shitty deaLSD

but that will drop in almost any gm rear wheel you would need v 8 motor mounts and some work as in if its efi the braimn and h\arness that sorta deal

hey there wright i want to see the chevette if you do

kinda gets me thinking though i got a couple 350s only bad part is is my lightest car is either a saturn (fwd) or a camaro
sorry i do have a nissan actually 3 but sorry there riced all the way no can do i got an 86 300z im droppin a fresh na and turbo (9 to 1 compression and a turbo hmmmm) and an 84 50th anneversery and a 83 280 zx turbo that needs floor boards
but any way if i find a chevet il drop it in

my freinds got a 4 wd tempo jacked to the sky on 33" swamppers lol now theres a mud..... car????

Well, if the freaking thing is still hogging space in my garage (no tittle) the next time my wife has a 'girls party' and a keg is wheeled out there, done it shall be.

Nice part is I have all the Hot Rod mags that covered the "bad seed" build where they "molded" a chevette around a caddy 500. Completely sick, the driver had to sit in the back seet since the fire wall moved so far back.

small block is a small block, it will bolt into any vehicle that came with one.

Also, without naming names, anyone who uses inappropriate terms towards groups of people, in this case, homosexuals, should strongly concider editing their post.

Yeah i didnt wanna go with getting a 350 or even another 305. The one i have has only 86000 miles on it and it runs perfectly.
