Nobody can answer that for you.
The 383 will be less expensive and easier to get running.
LSx will be more expensive, involved, and take more time, but you'll be rewarded with a lighter car, big power potential, and driveability & economy that can't be rivaled for the power.

Go with a LSx. I was going to put a forged 406 in my IROC but now I have decided to go with a 6.0 LSx.
