Are there any jet chips or hypertech horsepower chips to fit 94 V8 305 caprice?
I don't doubt that someone makes a chip for the 305 but it will be expensive and you won't notice much difference. Here is the cheapest and easiest way to gain horsepower from your gutless 305. I am not busting your chops, I had a 1985 Caprice with a 305 and a 1992 Caprice with a 305. Go an buy a K&N airfilter. These air filters kick class and will give you much more air intake which = horsepower. The air fliters cost me about $42 at Advance Auto. They also offer a K&N cold air system which replaces all the original air intakes with a healthy looking air sucker. From what I have read and heard, that gives you a dramatic increase in horsepower. I think they run around a hundred but I didn't check because I didn't know about them until after the fact. Now to the down and dirty. To really add horsepower install a Flowmaster exhaust sytem. Flowmaster is the standard for performance exhausts. Plan to spend about a grand on that. The bottom line is this, the 305CID, or as it is now known, the 5.0L Chevey engine was never much of a performance engine. It has small valves and a crappy cam so you can never expect much from them. If I wanted power I would drop about $4000 and buy a 350/350 crate motor but that would fry your TH-350 or 400 in short order.
What will headers add to a Chevy 305?
adding headers will allow engine to breath better and boost up horsepower but not by much, headers also make you vehicle louder with pipes.

What is the horsepower of a stock 1985 IRoc Z28 with 305 TPI and what is the cheapest way to add more?
The 1985 stock 305 TPI was rated at 215 horsepower. The 1986 had a milder cam and slighty less horses, I belive 205. Correct....the HP is rated at 215, but it produces a lot of torque. A quick way to add about 15 hp is to install an air foil for about $70.00. The air foil installs where the hose connects to the air intake on the engine. It's a quick and easy install. I added a Flowmaster catback exhaust and K&N air filters and a hyperchip. Not impressed with the chip. The Flowmasters and K&N filters did much more than the chip. Engine runs much cooler.
Whats the best way to add horsepower?
Start with a cold air intake, then add headers. If you want 100 or more horsepower instantly add nitrous
