Mark, I think you are likely to reduce your engine's power output approximately 6% with the stroke decrease. Unless you change gearing and increase your peak rpm limit your car will be slower accelerating. Destroking engines may sound "racey" but is typically done to get under a displacement limit set by race rules-- rules imposed to limit performance.

You would be better served having a high-reving stroker engine. An aftermarket lower end assembly should be able to withstand 4500 ft/min mean piston speeds reliably.
