tad much IMO, 185's are nice for decent boost, if your staying N/A i'd go with the 165's

your intake choice will be a bottleneck with 185s and a stg2 cam

Well I already have the intake and the shortblock is ready to be shipped, so thats not a option.
You guys talk like this is the worst combo ever, hows it gonna run?

its not particularly a bad combo, its just that 185's are a serious head, next step up from them is pretty much race only. plus a stage 2 cam. it will run very well on a 306 but your gonna need tons of fuel, and the cobra intake isn't capable of producing the flow you need to bring you to a 13:1 A/F ratio.
