350 to 383. Is it worth it?

So in the next year or so I'm contemplating making the upgrade from a 350 (rv cam/ Holley/ Edelbrock intake) to a 383 with a similar setup and maybe some aluminum heads and Vortec setup. I bought the truck with the current drivetrain and it's ok, I guess. It runs pretty well, but it lacks oomph, if you know what I mean.

Has any one done this?

Is it noticeably better?

Does it in your opinion, justify the expense?
