Cherry Tree Questions

This is a sour cherry tree grown from seed. It comes from a thicket of trees that were probably also grown from seed, but taste quite well. All these trees are probably quite a bit down the line from the original parent tree that was a variety. Anyway I thought I would keep a part of the original root stock since the fruit tastes quite well and then graft onto the bigger main branch. I know the graft will be quite far up like maybe 6 inches plus from the base just wondering if it would work or if the root stock will try to kill the graft and focus on the original branch. If there’s anything else you see on my tree that I should do before grafting let me know. Also any scion wood variety recommendations for sour cherries and I guess I assumed that it wasn’t too late in the year to try to graft onto this?
