I wouldn't bother with that combo. Vacuum secondary carb (yuck), very non-specific about the cam and intake. Just put the good parts together yourself.

What "crate 350" are we talking about here?

Take a look at this: http://www.sdparts.com/product/SD806...RPMAirGap.aspx . Good heads, put a good cam in (something like a Comp XE27x-28x-ish), Holley 750 DP - that would be a good street/strip combo (with accompanying torque converter, of course).

Since you're replacing the heads & cam anyway, just start with a shortblock. The L31 would be a good choice, better than that Goodwrench block for sure.

And, frankly, I wouldn't use any of the stuff you listed, with the possible exception of the intake, but that wouldn't work with the heads I suggested.
