Our resident 460 expert Paul Kane will hopefully see this and respond, but in the meantime, I think he will be fine. 429/460 bottom ends are very strong and just the addition of some good rod and main bolts will usually do the trick.
I've got a 460 for a someday project (maybe a bracket drag car) and I am using a stock lower end with a Cobra Jet crank and rods. I feel this will hold up pretty well, you rarely hear of BBF engines with bottom end failures until you start really feeding the nos to them.
These monsters will make a believer out of you.
