Build critique?

Build critique?
So I ordered a bunch of parts today, wondering if y'all wanna give me some input.
-Futral F13 on 112
-I have a crate ls6 motor so I didn't get an oil pump
-BTR platinum kit with steel retainers (because it will be a street car)
-monster stage 2 with a tick master
-I was thinking of getting some injectors and a pump, maybe the blue demon 3's from FIC and a 255 and call it quits.
-As far as pushrods go, I'll wait till the install to buy them and measure first.
-Didn't buy lifters as I felt the stock ones are not even 15k miles old, that they would be okay, not to mention I have the lightweight valves and pretty light valve springs so I shouldn't put too much pressure on them.
I will be taking it to Pat G for the tune hopefully so lets see if this thing is gonna be daily driveable, I've had only one experience with a cammed car and that was my last motor with the MS4 that chewed up a spring and dropped a valve which led to the crate LS6 now. The car makes 400 rwhp and 390 rwtq as she sits, any guesses on what she'll dyno?

Should be fine. The F13 lobes aren't going to kill the valvetrain either.
Clutch looks good.
BTR kit with the steel retainers dont really add much durability. You can talk to Tooley about that as he's stated it before. Not enough to be concerned at least. But the weight of the ST retainers is pretty light as well, so no harm there (and it's cheaper).
LS6 crate should be fine with the lifters and oil pump.
I bought Bosch EV14 injectors from FIC. They are a good company though they haven't gotten back to me on the tune files for the injectors. I guess I'll have to give them a call.
Btw, where did you get the LS6 crate?
