Was able to get the 307 out today. Went pretty easily except the block and bell housing didn't really want to separate. Had to use some WD-40 and a wood block and a hammer. Able to get it out, so now I'll be working on moving some odds and ends from the 307 to the newer 305. Then will work on adding all the new accessories to the 305 then get it in the truck. Once it runs satisfactorily, it'll be off to the trans shop for a rebuild, new carrier bearing and a rear diff fluid swap.
