YES a Whole lot better.
Is a 2.8 liter engine a 305?
There is no information on the internet about what the special feature of the Chevy 305 engine is, in fact, the Chevy 305 and 350 are interchangeable, one is just an older model.
== == In all honesty, the Ford 302 is a much better engine than the 305. The 302 will outlast, outrun, and out pull the 305. The 305 is GM's joke engine. I am a mechanic and GM will sorely suprise you. Cheap quality. Ford all the way. I used to be a Chevy guy, until they ALL tore up on me. Have had 2 Fords since then, and all I have had to do is change the oil, spark plugs, and air filter. I have the 302, MAN is it an awesome engine. Have had the 305 and it's towing ability is very sad. == == == ==

Yes, and well.
Who said it won't ? It will fit right in there with NO problems
Oldsmobile used to make a 307 V8, but it has nothing in common with a Chevy V8.
