first off if you can even get a set...second a custom intake would be needed...and third for the price of the actuall conversion for just a bit more you can buy yourself a real hemi that will allways be worth more...plus the benefits of the hemi cross bolted block which can handle a lot more abuse then a 383 block

You can use the conversion heads on a low deck but you will have to make a sheet metal intake manifold for it.It cost about $8000 to put together a conversion engine.That whats I came up with a couple of years ago.I found a set with pistons and rocker gear for $3500.They do have a oil leak problem on one of the head bolts in the exhaust port.
