help with the motor build

so i want to build a small block for my truck but im torn between a 355 and 383. I have an 010 block im gonna start with but I dont know the displacement i wanna go with. I have an 1182 crank so that would save me some money just to go with the 355. what im going for is pretty much the wildest motor i can still drive on the street without too much trouble. its gonna be all forged bottom end and aluminum heads for sure. but my biggest problem is deciding what cam/intake to use. i was thinking maybe a tunnel ram and a big cam for the 355 and make it a real top end monster. or go with the 383 with a good dual plane and a little milder cam, but the problem there is cost. so if you guys could tell me some good set-ups for what im looking for or some constuctive critisism on my ideas anything will help. thanks
