383 with 440 heads?

[MoParMetal]

I'm picking up a 383 and a torqueflite on Monday. i don't need it, but what the hey. If I were to put the heads and the intake from my 440, will it just bolt on? Do I need any extra parts to make it fit?

Eventually this motor is going to end up in my wifes Duster. I might use it in the Charger for a while, until I finish the 440.

The heads will just fine since they are the same but the intake is wider on the 440, you'll need a "B" intake for that part.

im getting an edelbrock performer intake for the 383 in the deal. so just swap heads...nice

Another point of interest would be the head gasket, they make some pretty thick ones that rob compression.  It isn't much but it all adds up.  I preferred to go with the steel shim with some spray copper gasket seal.  Also, I had my heads checked to ensure they were true as well before installation.
