Everything looks good. I had a very similar set up with just my motherboard being different with the UD3 instead of UD4. Everything works great in snow leopard. I don't use snow leopard much, but I have some older programs that like you said won't work in Lion or ML. I just made a small partition for snow and use ML as my main OS.

Thanks for the answer.
Im glad that U confirmed this Spec.
Hope that installation of SL do not make any bigger issues.

Its a good idea about using two OS, will think about it - thanks.
How big partition U made for SL?

Next week will start to collect the parts

Mine is 40 GB. I think you could go a little smaller.
