The 882 heads are (crap) prone to cracking. I would stay away from them on any kind of performance engine. BTW, I learned the hard way through personal experiance.
Don't worry about the english, I was born and raised here and I still can't spell worth a flip.

Go the 350 route. I'ed suggest some different heads tho. You can find used L98 350 heads CHEEP and you can keep the TPI setup and you'll just need a chip for a 350 and your 19lb. 305 injectors
will work for now and you can upgrade to 22lb. injectors later as time and money allows.Anyway thats what I would do.

yeah thats what i wanted to do but it seems that the flywheel /MAF/sensors/oil pan dipstick/flat tappet cam with injection wont fit true?

You will have to get a flywheel for an older model crank, and you will have to get a dipstick for the driver side but they make flat tappet cams for tpi and all the sensors will bolt up.
