Question 383 emblems?

does anyone here know of an aftermarket manufacturer of emblems for chevy cars that have 383 strokers in them? i saw a car in a magazine that had one that even replicated the legendary small block lettering used on the sides of muscle cars, such as the 350 or 327 emblems back in the day. i think that a pair of these on the fenders of my truck would look pretty killer. the problem is that i dont know who made the emblems for that car in the mag. maybe he fabbed them from something but i dont think any other motor had an number 8 in the cubic inch size, so i doubt he took 2 of the 3's from something and an 8 from something else. anyone know of a manufacturer for this particular emblem?

www.parts123.com has '75-80 cheyenne 10 ones $32.95 each

and 73-76 cheyenne super 10 ones $75/pair


i have a pair of 75-80 cheyenne 10 ones i dont need

http://www.parts123.com/parts123/yb....5AACAZ~Z5Z5Z51

no one seems to have any correct 73-74 cheyenne ones or any of the round style 73-79 cheyenne ones, rare, unless maybe LMC might, possibly

look here too
