351C Building

I have the chance to buy a 351C out of a Torino and I picked out a whole list of what Im going to put into it. I planned this engine not to be a dog at all. I want this to be pretty snappy. Here is what I put in it:

Summit Rebuild Kit 10.22:1 CR
Crane PowerMax Cam and Lifters (Cant find the specs but it had about a .530 lift)
Manley Stainless Intake and Exhaust Valves
Comp Cams Springs
Summit Oil Pump (High Volume)
Summit Timing Chain (True Roller)
Weiand X-CELerator intake manifold
Edelbrock 750 CFM
Heddman Headers

With all of this stuff and some good ARP fasteners for the engine and a little chrome my bill came out to $1963.39. Not too bad, I least I didnt think it was. This engine will probly see 6000 a few times in its life cuz I love to street race and go to the drags. Can anyone tell me if this thing will be snappy enough or should I get some more goodies??

Thanks
