Decobraman,

You might want to strengthen the rods/pistons a little - close to the edge.

Manifold is good as are heads, so are World Products and GT40X.

650 carb is to large, 600 CFM is more than enough.
CFM=CID*RPM/3456=302*6000/3456=525 CFM
Smaller carb will improve throttle response.

Going over 224 degrees I/E (@0.050) AND over 110 overlap may cost you in low/midrange and drivability.

Comp cams 31-414-3, 224I/224E/110O, 0.500 lift
Comp cams 31-226-3, 230I,230E,110O, 0.512 lift

Are two choices as is Ford B303. Any of them will get you around 340-360 HP in combo.

Hardened pushrods might be good as well.
