Anyone with a 383 LT1?

I'm thinking about, in the future, makin' a 383 LT1 for Kitt. Mine would be my daily driver, so if it's gonna cost me too must in gas I probably won't do it. Does anyone have one, or know what some specs of times would be? Thanks.

a few of my friends have 383 or 385 LT1's.
The cars aren't daily drivers though.

A buddy of mine just did heads and cam on his 96 LT1 and put down an amazing 399.1rwhp untuned with a 3600 stall.

Zepher, what heads and cam did your friend use? I'm aiming for 400 rwhp and trying to figure out an economical way to get it.
