305 is 2nd worst? Jesus, I can think of legions of worse Chevrolet engines: 200/229 "semi-even-fire" V6 (the latter literally being 75% of a 305), 267 V8, pushrod 2.2L, Corvette ZR1 Mercury Marine 350, 6.2/6.5 diesel, the Vega 2.3...
 
Nah, that's the Iron Duke. Probably GM's best four-cylinder... insanely hard engine to kill. In fact, it'll still drive down the road with the ignition around 30°ATDC and the exhaust manifold glowing a very bright orange-yellow. Been there, done that... new timing gears and she was good as new.
 
Mom's neither rattled nor smoked, ever. Nor did the countless other ones I dealt with back when there were millions of them on the road. They weren't exactly rockets but they were quiet and durable in my experience. I worked in automotive during that time, including two GM dealerships. Other than the half-assed timing gears they were much like a Slant Six. They were slow with not enough power to hurt themselves, and delivered reasonable economy. I really put the boots to Mom's Calais one night, under threat of four guys roughly the size of Ahnold, and between exceptional wheeling of the car and the engine taking a ton of abuse, we got away cleanly... with the low fuel light glowing the entire 15-minute chase (hey, I said they were slow! :D ).
