this one did 403/371
the main things are going to be compression, tune, head flow and just how much your going to lose through your stall.
so im going to shoot for the 390-400 mark for you

the heads are just stock and opened up 
I know I need LE3's but I don't have the money right now cuz I need to support the power that it will have right now.
Should I not get that big of an oil pan? Or, what would you guys suggest?

Verdad Gallardo You still need to answer the "what compression" and "what rear end" questions.
You might want to consider bumping up your static compression. With that cam you will be able to run a much higher static compression to pull your dynamic up a bit higher. If you're building a 383, no reason to not take advantage of an increase in compression. 10.5:1 is stock. You could easily eclipse 12:1 to tighten up your quench a bit more and give you a healthy increase in power too.
When I spoke to Lloyd about my setup and told him that I had the 847 but was willing to go with a custom grind or an LE4 he told me to stick with the 847 since my car is basically a DD with ocassional test n tune drag racing. He said my car would be more DD friendly with the 847 cam than the LE4 so that's why I kept it, I will also be adding a 150 shot on top of it.
