Back when the power rating for these 383 engines was set (2003) the process and procedures and decisions were different than now. NHRA has moved toward trying to eliminate the subjective decisions and has established policy based on a portion of the AHFS. Not that it is without its flaws either. However, just petitioning NHRA without substantive performance data to back up your request, you are probably not going to get very far. There are racers out there who have realized how that system works and have become masters at establishing their power level to an advantage. However, racers with big egos who always want to show out and those people who race very popular combinations that support a very competitive cluster will be at a disadvantage. If you really want to reduce your power rating, you have to be dedicated and savvy to play the system.
