Personally - Unless you're racing it, I really don't think it matters what you've got in there.
As long as it's one of those three, you'll be happy.
I'm assuming you're not looking for a matching numbers car. If you're looking for a matching hemi, that's going to really cost you.
Personally I'd go with the Hemi if all else was equal. No question about it. Everything is cooler with a hemi. Looks cooler, sounds cooler, is cooler! If you ever decide to sell it, it'll sell for more, and more quickly.
But aside from the hemi fanaticism out there - the difference between a 440 and 383 is not all that great.
Either can be built to perform beyond what you're reasonably going to put to the ground.
440's got a longer stroke and might give you easier torque. The 383 will rev faster if top end is your thing.
But I've owned and driven many varieties of both engines - I really think you'd be happy with either. To me I'd go 440, just because extra cubes give you a little more rumble at idle.
I'm also a fan of the 6 pack for the 440 - if for no other reason than it looks cool. Yeah, somebody makes one for the 383, but it's just not the same as saying 440 6pack.

The center of any village once the shop is closed is the old tavern. Rustic places with cheerful names like "The Griffin" "Red Lion" or "The Plough and Harrow" are found dotted around the country lanes all over the place. The warm glow of yellowish light can be seen for quite some distance at dusk, and
