Default Making sure combo is right before putting together

I have a 65 Old's 442 coming out of the body shop and want to make sure I have the right combo before I put it together. This car will be driven in the city and highway and hopefully some auto cross.
I have a real crate ls2 that was bought in 2006 and never put into a vehicle. It now has a fast 92with NW 92 throttle body,226-230@50 612-595 lift 113+2 cam ,PRC 2.5 243 heads with BTR springs and push rods, Straub trunions , 1 7/8 headers, 3 inch exhaust, FTI 3200 stall, 4L60 trans, Moser 12 bolt with 355's and 315/30r18s.
Is there anything I should change that doesn't work together or something I'm missing .
How do you think this combo will perform?
Any input would be appreciated thanks.
Hope this is in the right section.

It ought to come in at close to 450hp/425tq at the wheels with a good bit of mid-range torque.

I can see nothing wrong with this as a daily driver....
