I know it doesn't have the torque/and stroke of the RB motors, but if it falls in the H, I, J area, (like I think it might), I thought It just may have a crack at being competitive, Thanks for any info.

Sounds like a neat car.
Now, time for a reality check here.
That combo has been de-factored 49 horsepower. If you can't put something together reasonably , that will run under the index , then Stock Eliminator is probably not for you.
On the other hand, if you want to run at the top of the pack and survive a heads up run in those heavily populated classes, it won't be cheap.
Tommy Auger's car is a top end piece ,as are the other fast 383's out there.
There are guys here that will help you to do it yourself, and also plenty who will help you spend a big pile of money.
You need to think it over and tell us what you want to do.
Also , where are you located?
