Default motor build up help

so ive been switching what i want to do with my motor alot now due to budget. now the plan is to do a 383 with some spray. here is what i came up with so far. il probably spray a 200 shot on this and have 42# injectors and a racetronix fuel pump kit

383 forged rotating assembly
ms4
ls6 intake
1 7/8 lts and ory
243 heads

how much power would this combo get me? i know it will be more then the 390 i made wit my ms3, 853 heads and 1 3/4 lts. also would anybody reccomend a different cam. id like it big and choppy so i figured the ms4 would be great since i loved my ms3. also what piston size should i go with? i have 93 octane gas in my neighborhood and would like to get it as high as i could thats easy to tune on pump gas.

check out GMHTP website. search "my first stroker". Chris Werner did a great write up. It's a four or five part article. You should get that power no problem. Good luck and post when you are done!
