As has been said before I don't think the GM factory will fit a 
APS charger on the assembly line, and it's not a 305 (Chev), it's a 
304 or 308 (Can't remember when they switched) Holden V8.
As for 307kW, I reckon this is underrated, I saw one of those APS 
charged cars at our local street drag meets and it was running low 
12.3 from memory, in a car that must weigh at least 3600lbs. Must 
take more power than that. Either way it's till a $65,000+ 
investment.
