You did not screw up at all. An engine is an engine and a 351 is an great choice. The only problem with a Cleveland, as some have already stated, is the lack of aftermarket parts. But it is no more of a challenge than finding parts for a 427 side oiler. You should have a great mill when you are done.

There are more parts showing up every day for this engine. Here are some examples

as long as you components are reasonably matched, you will have a great engine.
