All 383 Kits Will Work In A Lt1?

I Blew My Engine Yesterday Triying A 200 Shoot.
I Want A 383 Le3 But I Don't Have All The Money.
I Want To Know If All 383 Kits Work On A Lt1?
A 383 Can Use The Stock Cam? Just For A Short Period Until I Save Money For A Le3.
Also, Do I Need A Forged Crank? I'm Planing 300 Steped Shot Or Maybe Progresive But The Same Amount. Thanks For Your Help

I know for one thing you have to have a kit made for a 1-peice rear main seal

If you're planning to spray a 300-shot, you need 4-bolt mains, a good forged crank, forged or billet rods and a forged piston designed specifically for nitrous. Not gonna work with economy parts.

u can use a stock cam. instead of buying an le3 setup (which is made for 350's) and have bret bauer grind you a cam to take advantage of the extra cubes. you'll get more power and effeciency from that
