Default To Much For Engine???

Hey I am I proud owner of a 78 II and owned it for 6 years and I had the engined rebuilt 2 years after I had it. It is bored .030 and I just got the tranny rebuilt too. What I am trying to ask is that I just put it back in the shop for major performance upgrades and I want to know if it is too much for my engine (Holly 650cc carb., Holly intake, GT40P Heads, Lunati cam, MSD 6AL ignition, MSD Distributor, and all new flowmaster exhuast.) Also what will be the Horsepower gain?
