I am thinking of replacing my ssl-6 with the vintage hot stack in the bridge position of my Strat......any thoughts on the tonal difference?

If you like the SSL-6, the Custom Stack Plus is the same/similar noiseless. The Vintage Hot is a little lower output but it sounds like a nice fat lightly overwound vintage pickup.

Thanks Frank! Does the stack have a little more lowend? I am looking for something similar to the ssl-6 with a tad more lows.

The Hot Stack Plus has the most low end and lowest resonant peak. The Vintage Hot is not as hot as the Custom, but its a different wire gauge so the tonal balance is shifted. Being more overwound vintage it has a little more low end girth. The Custom is hotter but also screams a little more.
