1972 Chevelle SBC combo

We picked up a 1972 Chevelle over the holidays and are curious about a Stocker combination.





The car is well built with good, safe, quality parts. The current engine is a forged 383 roller engine with Dart heads and a Holley. I'd like to keep this engine for cruising to car shows and some local small tire DOT racing but wanted a Stocker engine to drop in and try to get our feet wet in class racing.

Is there a good SBC Stocker combination that wouldn't break the bank and is a class without a million killer cars where we could just worry about running the index to get started? The car already has nice SB headers, EWP, alternator mount, etc. so I'd like to stay SB.

Thoughts?
