Chevrolet never built a 383 for production use. Many aftermarket suppliers have produced a 383 Chevy. It was originally built by taking a 400 crankshaft and having the main journals reground to fit a 350 block. The combination of the 400 crank and rods with the 350 block and pistons yields a reciprocating assembly with correct compression height. In standard bore, this would make 377 cubic inches. The 383 would be a .030" overbore.
Since most of those parts have been used up, the aftermarket now produces all new parts to build a 383.
It could be noted that Chrysler produced a 383 for many years during the 60's and 70's. It has nothing in common with the Chevrolet.
