i noticed my heads have a oil residue around them. I cleaned it off and it comes right back. Its not enough to leak, or even drip...but is it anything to worry about?

If you can, post some pics. Head gaskets on these will usually start to leak between the lower bolt holes and leave a residue that seeps down the block. Is there any history of the car having gaskets put on it before?

What head gaskets are you running?

this motor is brand new....about 3000-4000 miles on. everything is still fresh.

the gaskets im using are the .60 ones I got from SDPC. I have some new .50's in the garage. Will my CR change to a point I need a tune with the different thickness?

When I bought my motor from them, they said i had -7 pistons, so I bought my stuff to accomodate for those....I ended up with -2 pistons. so I had to buy thicker gaskets. Should I change them out?

I'm sick of smelling burnt out everytime I drive

on a 4" stroker, you'll gain roughly .3 in compression. In a stock 3.622 you'll gain .25 in compression. Not much and shouldnt affect anything unless you're running on the ragged edge. Probably will be better for quench to boot.
