Default Forged crank?

Is it worth the extra money to buy a forged crank?

Im going to buy a 383 forged stroker kit and use either the LE2 or LE3 head and cam package, im hoping to make around 400rwhp on my DD.

IF you use good parts that are light with the cast one it will live with a LE2 383 setup and keep the RPM to a 6500 max. I would rather have a 4 bolt than a forged crank IMHO.
