Questions about my wagon!!
OK, I just bought a 88 Chevrolet Station Wagon. It has 85,000 original miles on it. And actually I'm the second owner of it now. It has the little 5.0-305 in it. I was wondering what can I do to put more power to the wagon. Add-on custom parts to it since it doesn't have that many miles on it or put a bigger motor or what. I mean I'm trying to get more power or what not, into a Big Wagon. Also around the bumpers (Front/back) its seperated from the body, what can I do for that...

I try to stay away from the 305 but the older chevys had lots of them the only thing that i and many other mechanics would do w a 305 is maybe tear it down put a nice lifter and cam on it make sure everything looks good on tha inside and hope your motor has lots of years left in it ;) good luck w the wagon gotta love seeing those going down tha road

True. Well I mean like I said the car only got 85,000 miles on it. Although it could be another motor. But most likely, I will keep that motor & add a few things to it. To get more power. I know I'm going to throw some Flowmasters, on it. Just love the sound of power. Maybe a little hoodscoop & so on..
