You'll never run 11:1 on 87 octane. I still think you are choking it with the cam, don't go 1.7's get a higher lift cam and go 1.6's they put less stress on the valve trian, I'm sure some others will agree with me. I do agree with Jim go 3:55's the 4:10's will be way to much for the torque of a 351, you just don't need it. If your not planning on running high rpms you don't need the TFS R heads or Intake. Those componets like the high RPMS. Get a set of 185 AFR's and a Holley or Track Heat Upper.
