gas somehow got into the oil and it messed it up.

how much would it cost to make it a 383 with a pro installing it?

you may not need to go .060 over I would start with .030 from a relability standpoint, not that the bigger bore isn't reliable it's just the most you want to take a sbc engine without filling the block so anything happens (bad ring or something) it's junk

no specific kit will give you any power, it's all in combinations, and alot has to do with machine work, a basic kit may get you there if you do head work and upgrade the cam (few kits have the performance cam) 396 is a big block would be more work to install, 383 is a stroked 350 so it's the same engine
