Does anyone know the Specialized hierarchy? As in elite, comp, pro i'm confused! What are the differences and how to they range from good to excellent?

I think expert sits above comp and pro, but below elite (I think?!) .
The Enduro and Stumpy (FSR) are different bikes though, in my experience the Stumpy is more of a sharp steering race oriented bike, the Enduro is more relaxed and more a trail or all-mountain bike.

You would need a large frame on a specialized, that's what I have and I'm only 6'1.
