305 parts on 283

First post in this forum. Have to say, been a lurker here for a number of years.

On topic, I have a 283 v8 that I have mounted in a project of mine. It has the power pack heads on it, stock Chevy intake, roller rocker valve covers, HEI dizzy, and an Edelbrock 650 CFM 4bbl. It was in a beat to crap "drag car". Anyways It runs good, leaks very little oil, and exhaust sounded nice in the donor car. I like it. Not extreme power, but enough for my little Japanese truck and Dana 44 axles . If anyone is interested I can share build details in the appropriate section.

Anyways, a buddy of mine got a worn out 305 for free. He was going to build it up, but decided instead to scrap it out because he has too many other projects going on. It has an Edelbrock intake on it.

#1, would it be worth it for me to take the 305 heads on it and to put them on my 283 (at a later date)
#2, will the Edelbrock intake fit on my 283?
#3, is there a strong demand for the power pack heads in 2017?
