Personally I dont like to do that much volume, anything 10x10 to me is overkill. I know thats the GVT stuff, but I never liked it. For me there is nothing like a 5x5 with planned progression, and cardio on off days. But thats just me, and thats what my body responds to. Now when I start to stall, I will drop to a 3x3, and increase intensity if possible. And i've never had a problem putting on size or strength doing this, but again, thats me.
I know there are a lot of templates for things like this, but if you dont like them, then you can always switch up the movements, or improvise. We seem to be similar in a lot of ways, we are both fairly big guys, and your very strong already, so perhaps putting on size isnt really a factor for you, but if you want to roof a feather, strength definately is.
You had made a comment about volume and exertion headaches, I dont see why you would do such high volume if that is the case. I can understand doing more volume if you intend to use wieghts like cardio (like circuit training or something), and keeping your heart rate up while lifting, but I wouldnt expect to see any type of real strength gains doing that.
BTW, the diet looks very clean, just make sure your getting enough protien for a guy your size, and I would look at the harris-elliot BMR to make sure your in the right range. Oh and make sure you get in atleast one or two good cheat meals per week.
