again, I don't have the manuals.

I would encourage you to find the manuals but do the calculations using a short field/soft field technique and numbers.

you may use two notches (25 degrees) of flaps for takeoff and really do quite well.

again I flew from a 2500' paved runway back then.

club seating is a plus. the saratoga can have an easier to manage fuel system than very early cherokee sixes.

good luck and happy landings.

do check many things as the 3 bladed prop on some planes lowers takeoff performance but is nicer in cruise.
