Not that well. The valves are too small for high performance use, and the combustion chambers were too big.

305 heads of course, 350 heads will fit for sure and possibly 400. obviously no big block heads will fit. a 305 with 400 heads gets you a little over 352. 350 with 400 heads is a 383. add and divide

Will there be a power gain if you put 400 heads on a Chevy 350?

Probably not. 400 heads came with 1.94 intakes and 1.5 exhausts, and many of them had 76cc chambers. If the 350 has smaller chambers the 400 heads would lower the compression ratio, thus reducing power.

Will parts from a 1979 305 5.0 fit on a 350 or 400 block?

all external bolt on parts will work. heads, intake, dist, cam, pan, timing chain, oil pump etc. should all work as well. most internal parts will not work though. such as pistons crank rods and block. The 305 crank will fit the 350, but will need to be balanced. i would not use the 305 heads due to small compression chambers.


Can you put 400 Chevy heads on a 350 Chevy engine?

noNEW ANSWER: Sorry but the above answer is wrong. The only thing that is different on the 400 heads is that they have steam holes in them and it don't matter if they are blocked off by the head gasket. And YES they will bolt right on the 350 block with no problems.
