I blew the doors off of some grand national or something like that last night. It was for fun and from a roll on at about 10-15 mph. i took him by at least 6-8 cars in a matter of 10 seconds. My buddy Jack saw that whole thing from following us in his car and said he could not hear after it was over. We raced in a tunel and it was loud from what i was told....HAHA. Just some late night fun.
Oh, yeah it was in the MR2, I did not have the celica out this year yet.

^^The gearing of the car has nothing to do with the motor. My buddy has a 88 Comaro with the 5 liter 305, and it's a good motor. They are very diverse motors. You can't compare them to anything for that reason. Maybe your friends particular 305 is junk, but they all aren't. I was comparing it to the 302, and I still am, because those motors came in a ton of things. Trucks, sports, and sedans. Same as the 305 came in all three of those too. The Chevy 307 is junk. Are you sure your not thinking of it? I don't think they ever put it in a Comaro though. With the Toyota motors, all you have to do is see a couple and you know what kind of motor they are. The those 5 liter Domestics, they just have to be of a variety to make judgement unless you've really seen that particular motor in what ever car upclose.

No, trust me, the 305 is a very insubstantial motor that's not good for modification, and was never matted to any sort of transmission that effectively utilized the little power it did make. I'm not talking about reliability, market use, or driveability here (although the 305 is a decent cruiser motor), it's just straight up not a tuner motor, and in that sense, the 302 is light years ahead of it. For fun, check out some timeslips for 305 Camaros.... they're running times similar to our Celicas.
