Steve,

The first question to ask yourself is what did you change?  If they
use to turn out fine and now they are overexposing, did you change
films, labs or lenses.  Or, have you just started to notice that they
have always been overexposed.

With your 283, you can always lie to it and tell it that you have
faster film than you are really using.  That way it will kill the
flash a bit quicker and drop the exposure a bit.
