L6 to V8 weight bias significance

Hello! I've swapping a 250 out for a 383, and I've been doing a lot of reading about the process for a long while.

I was planning on placing the engine in the original V8 spot because I don't want it to feel cramped, but from what I've read putting it in the L6 spot might give better weight bias and improved handling.

My question is: is this noticeable, and enough so that it's worth putting the engine further back? Or is it just a good reason to not move it if you're hoping to avoid the work.

Thank you for your time as always!
