383 stroker swap

Hey everyone im pretty new to all this stuff and just joined the forum, but i was wondering if this is possible and not gonna break my bank cuz im only 18.
I have a fresh 383 stroker with the engine code 3970010 and its a 4 bolt main, i was wondering if i could swap it into a 4th gen camaro 98 to 02 and what modifications will have to be done if any with heads, intake mani, ect. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Your not going to like my answer. But why swap into a camaro of that vintage, do all that work swapping it then changing it over to non computerized and standard flow cooling when the LS1 those cars came with will blow the doors off many a 383.
Sure the swap is doable, but the price of swapping it will break the bank.

Ya that was another thing i wanted a second opinion on if it would even make sense doing lol. Is it possible say if i had a ls1 and got it machined and swapped all the internals or wouldnt that be cost effective?
