On the 383 Dodge , # 1 on the distributor cap faces to the front and slightly towards the passenger side
the 440 has much more power but the 383 is louder the 440 is harder to find
no
I believe that faces towards the front and towards the passenger side ( same as the 383 , 400 , 426 Hemi , and 440 )

You can monitor distributor degrees with a timing light.
1 - 8 - 4 - 3 - 6 - 5 - 7 - 2 The distributor rotor turns COUNTERCLOCKWISE The marked # 1 position on the distributor cap faces to the FRONT / PASSENGER SIDE The engine cylinder locations are numbered : firewall 8 - 7 6 - 5 4 - 3 2 - 1 front

If you have a 361 the 383 heads will work, but they won't work on a 318.
Since a 1998 truck was not available with a 383 you would have modify a trans that bolts up to a 383 to fit the truck.
1 8 4 3 6 5 7 2 note, on the 383 (and all big block mopars) the distributor turns counter clockwise.
