So. A 383 and a 350 have the exact same block. The 383 has a 400 crank (The stroke is different). A Blower probably wont fit, let alone you wanting to use the "iroc" TPI system. You will be carbureting it probably for the blower..... And a twin turbo setup will probably fit assuming you are still using the TPI.

If you used a centrifugal supercharger It would fit.
