Re: 383 setup
That cam works well,and would make power in that combo,as well as sound cool.
That said,there are MUCH better grinds out there with today's technology.The Comp techline is readily available,google it and it will come up.
Be ready to divulge your induction type and size,trans info,rear gear ratio,and tire size.

Re: 383 setup
Get some real heads. Until you do, it doesn't make much difference what else you do to it.
Oh, with proper quench, you won't get to 10.2:1 with flat tops and 76cc chambers. More like 9.8:1.
