If you were looking for a way to put more pieces in your T5 & 10-bolt, I think you found it...

IF i would point out one wrong thing, is your intake. I would go with a Victor Jr. intake to take full advantage of that big cam you are running. You are going to need a high stall, and you power band will probly start around 3000 or so, so if i were you, go with a victor. Most of the time, they make more tq. and Hp than a RPM. Just ask around tho, its just what i see. Worth probly about 15 hp and 10 ft lbs.
