It sounds ok, but you could have gone +90 thou on the pistons using V6 cologne pistons, makes it around 2086cc then.
I've not used those cams, but you will need either a nicely modded distributor, ie a bosch one that has had the advance retard curve altered to suit the carbs, or a ignition ecu that is mappable to get the best, don't even think about keeping it on std advance retard curve.
As a rough rule you will need sheds loads more initial advance, but less overall, you can do this by trial and error, do the low down stuff by adjusting a little at a time and trying the car, then when happy with low down power, start doing the top end power, ther eis a little "cap" in the side of the std bosch distributor, into this hole you can insert a screwdriver and bend the weight stops a bit at a time to limit the advance it gets from centrigual advance/weights, you would be best probably not using the vacuum advance, just weld the arm so it doesn't move.
