started life as a 1250 then was modified by the carb shop in Cali. they didn't tell us the exact flow, but said it was substantially increased I had it on my '75 to get it home (should have seen teh rigging that took on the torquer 2 intake on a 305, the flames were cool too)

she might actually be a tad big, dry flow means nothing tho wet flow is what counts

make a 305 fast hook it to a boat and use it as an anchor, the 305 is a horrible design (the cylinders are too small for good flow)really high performance cam is a little too vague you need real spechs

its not that the bore is too small for any real flow...well kinda, in theory a 305 should be able to make just as much power as a 302, actually should be able to make 3 cubes more. However since the bore is so small you cant get any decent sized valves on there. And thats what makes the 305 such a horrible design.
