On a 383 with those heads,With a good cam I would guess somewhere around a 228-230 with around .580 or more lift, you should hit mid elevens easily.

I'm not too sure what size cam you need but you should be able to reach your goals fairly easily cam only. A well set-up 383 should get you low 11s to high 10s. Sorry I couldn't answer your question. Good luck to ya.
