305,ZZ4 Heads etc

Ive been getting good advice on my pending swap from you guys,but please help with a few other questions.I was going to fit a ZZ4 with Holley Stealth Ram(complete set up)in place of my 305tpi
However instead I decided to spend the money on a T56 conversion.Ive now got all these parts ready.
I have now decided to take the engine out at the same time and clean up the engine bay and tidy up the engine too.
What I thought though is, as my 305 has Dart II Sportsman Jr heads on it which have 1.94" and 1.5"valves 58cc chambers and 171cc volume,could i use a ZZ4 short engine and put on my heads and tpi just for another year or so while i save up enough money to buy the Holley Stealth Ram kit.Will my 1985 tpi set up be good enough to run this combination?Ive got a AFPR on it too.
Sorry its such a long question but im sure a couple of you guys will know the answer

Thanks again

let me know how that works out for you. i thought about a hsr for my 85 305 w/ 8113 heads +hooker 2460s, but i don't want to spin past 6k, so i'm planning on a lt1 intake.

i'd love to see some dyno results from a 305 hsr combo
