Will these components play nice together?

I've got a 1986 Raleigh Prestige that I want to upgrade. I think It has mostly stock components (Suntour stuff). It's got a double crank that seems to be in good condition and I have a pair of Shimano 105 wheels that I'm going to use.

What I want most are some indexed bar end shifters to replace the seven speed friction down tube shifters. I was looking at the Shimano 9 speed Dura Ace bar end shifters and thought that I might upgrade a few other components, as well.

Here are the components I was thinking of purchinsing and installing all together:

Shimano SL-BS77 Dura Ace Double/Triple Bar End Shifters (9-Speed)
Shimano CS-6500 Ultegra Bicycle Cassette (9-Speed, 12/27T)
Shimano CN-6700 Ultegra 10 Speed Chain
Shimano RD-6700 Ultegra Road Bicycle Rear Derailleur (Short Cage - SS)



will all of these components play nice together? Is there another combination of parts that will be cheaper/better suit my needs? I'm going with the Shimano components because that's the only company I have experience with, but I'm open to trying other manufacturers.

Thanks.
