It's quite a job. In a lot of cars the engine has to be removed because there is not enough room up in front for the in and out of the camshaft. You need to go to a car parts store, and get a repair manual for your car. They cost about $16.00 Or, go to a Public Library.

Do the Chevy 305 with a roller cam have a lot of power?

A Chevy 305 with a roller cam will have MORE power than a 305 with a flat tappet cam if both are installed in the same engine. The horsepower of any 305 depends on what all is done to the engine. Changing from flat tappet to roller will gain some. There are other ways to increase horsepower and there are other ways to increase torque.
