Default ls6 stroker options

This car is something I take out on the weekends so not a dd by any means.
Is a 383 the biggest you can safely go on an LS6 block?
I was looking at getting an ls3 but have so much money into this motor as it is and would take a bath on it if I sold it.
If you had the stroked ls6 vs a cam/head ls3 put into the same car and taking to a track would the results be drastic for similar or the most part?

Get a gen 3 stroked shortblock from a sponsor and swap your parts over. A couple thousand and you'll have 400+ ci and it'll drop right in. Sell your shortblock and get some of the money back.
