Currently, it is my understanding that the perpendicular callouts will work as shown?

Thanks

You don't appear to have located your .746 width/dimension

I thought the perpendicular callout would take care of locating the .746 dim because the centerlines are the split for the bilateral tolerance.
 
Perpendicularity does not control location.

Just showing center-lines does not imply any locational relationship. (ASME Y14.5M-1994 2.7.3)

However, I should have checked, what standards are you working too?

I am working to the newest standard. And I'm very new to it :)
 
Which newest standard, ISO, JIS, BS, DIN, ASME...

You might consider using profile tolerance for the whole shape.
 
Tick, may depend in part on how critical the corner radii are. If not critical then using position might be the way to go - otherwise you need to annotate accordingly.

aldumoul - can you give us some info on the design intent/functional relationships etc.

I'm wondering if you should reference datum A on the right hand views FCF.
