I wouldnt chance anything on those springs. keeping stock springs is a really bad idea. If you stick a cam in there change the springs, its added insurance. I am another vote for ditching the 305 and getting a cheap 350 go work on. My dad has a 305 in his 35 chevy pickup thats got a small cam, a little head work, headers, 4barrel, aluminum intake manifold, and a few other things and it moves okay, but only because the truck weighs most likely only about 2700 lbs. I would hate for you to spend all this time and money on a similar problem and switching over to a 350 later on down the road. My best advice for you is to keep this 305 the way it is, drive it, save up money for a decent engine/trans down the road and you will have saved money, and learned alot more in the long run.
