Default Budget 355 build, what do you guys think?

I have an 80xxx LT1 with fresh home ported heads and intake, 58mm Holley tb,Rollmaster double roller timing set, Comp 230/230 - .560/.560" cam, lifters and 1.6 pro magnum rr's, CSI ewp,Canton 244t oilpan pump and Heron billet oil pump drive. I want to freshen up the shortblock before I put it in the car and I just brought some Manley forged ft pistons and Scat 6" procomp 4340 7/16 bolt rods and I want to reuse the stock crank and have all the machine work done to the block. Should I have ARP main studs installed I plan to spin this thing to 6600-6700 rpms and use a 125 - 150 shot. I also have Pacesetter lts, true 3" duals m6 and an S60 rear plus I have an 847 cam shoul I use this one or the 230/230 cam with the spray?

Change in plans I found out I can get the same Manley forged pistons for a 6" rod 383 for the same price so I'm going to do a budget 383 instead of a 355 but I'm going to use a 4340 forged crank.
