I'm sure there will be some out there. 
There's one at our track, its a tough little motor.... 
440s are just plain fun to beat. I kind of enjoyed roasting my buddies 69 440 cuda this weekend. Not by alot, mind you, but the #'s don't lie.
and how much more do you have in your 383? What is the rest of the set-up? yours and his? apples and oranges. Nothing better than putting a Small block talker on the trailer w/ his "giant killer"
Flat tappet cams, alum heads (within few cfm, same bench) same pistons, same carb, ......
He has glass frontend, no aprons, little car. Mine is all factory steel, at least 400 lbs more. I found some issues with mine too, I'm barely getting 3rd gear with my bigger tires. It goes thru at 5900~ 6000, and I only make power between 6 and 7. I mean it bogs at 5 grand on gear change. I think a 5.13 should be in order.
