So we gots lots of boyz and lots of toys!
Also excuse any spelling errors that may come up!
HQ:
Mek: kff
Weirdboy: warphead
170
Troops:
29 sluggaboyz nob: pk, bp
29 sluggaboyz nob: pk, bp
29 sluggaboyz nob: pk
29 sluggaboyz nob: pk
870
Elites:
8x lootas
8x lootas
240
Fast Attack:
dakkajet: Extra Supa Shoota
dakkajet: Extra Supa Shoota
dakkajet: Extra Supa Shoota
360
Heavy Support:
Looted wagon w/boomgun
Looted wagon w/boomgun
210
1850pt total
My plan is to make the boyz kinda congoline around so each squad is getting KFF saves and the lootas in that back in ruins dakkaing away and at flyers
Dakkajets for anti infantry/transports
Weirdboy for all besides 1,2s at useful and i got the warphead for uh oh time
Looted wagons cus they are great with are only semi accurate str8 in the book
and sluggas over shootas cus that extra hit can feel very strong.
GIMME SOME INPUT! i did use this vs darkeldar and i won 13pts to 2points almost tableing them.

Not a fan of the Looted Wagons with Boomguns. Too frail and the only good AV target for your enemy. I'd drop them for more Lootas, because you can never have enough lootas. If not Lootas, then another squad of Boyz.
Slugga Boyz are good, but I think that Shoota Boyz are better, especially in 6th. 58 shots in a 24" threat. Run first turn, move, shoot, and assault if available every turn after.
A Bosspole on the other two squads would be really nice.
Will severely Struggle against AV14, so just ignore it or charge it with a PK. Everything else your Lootas and Dakkajets can take care of. And woe to any AV10 Rear Armor Flyer that shows its rear to a MobOBoyz with Shootas.

When footslogging make them all shootas. And if it's WYSIWYG then simply say they are all shootas. Orks doesnt care if they weild a slugga, they belive it can shoot further and fastah and so it does!
Your looted wagons, no man you need some more equipment on those! on weapondestroyed and it's useless! try include a big shoota on them.
The rest of the list looks ok for a greentide tough a warphead is too random for tournaments those points could be better spent for more lootas.

Good
~KFF Mek
~120 bodies
~Lootas
~Dakkajets
Bad
~Boomguns. Too fragile, these are 90% gonna die without a shot if you don't get turn one
~Shoota Boyz are much, much better than sluggas on foot. Trust me on this.
Ugly
~Warpheads are pure garbage

I think wierdboyz are fine, I know that at the last tourney orkimedezz and I went to he was amazing. Being able to ere we go a whole block of boyz from your backfield to the midfield t1 is very scary. He can also generate more waaaghs for dakka jets and fleet for running. All of his powers are useful except for 1s and thats what warphead is for. He is more of a YMMV kind of character due to playstyles and randomness

i agree with making them all shootas cus that many shots can hurt and also hurt flyers and arm10 the overwatch power can do pretty good. i think im gonna switch out the boomguns for kannons or make a new list around it. and i always do good with the weirdboy i like them i find them useful. thanks everyone!
also at my local play store no one cares witch are witch. i just say this blob is sluggas this blob is shootas. cus i have 90sluggaboyz and 40shoota boyz

My Take on this list:
Good:
Lootas
DakkaJets
Tons of Boyz (swap out the sluggas for shootas though)
Take it or Leave it:
Mek w/ KFF (I prefer the SAG myself for more shooty)
Looted Wagons w/ Boomguns (I like them myself... YMMV)
Bad:
Bosspoles. You're running 30 strong with boyz. If you get to the point where you need a bosspole then you have bigger issues than using it. Trim off 10 points and use it for another boy or something.
No 'Ard Boyz? I like to take at least one squad's worth, especially if you're footslogging like you're doing.
Ugly:
Wierdboyz. Either take Old Zog or forget about it using the Ork Psykers. Trade this git in for either a second Big Mek, a Warboss, Ghaz, Wazdakka, ANYTHING!
Notes:
As has been said before; Take more lootas (my goal is to one day field the max 45 allowable just to see my opponent shriek like a little girl, LOL) if at all possible for an army like this. That many boyz on the table means that templates will be the bane of your existance

Lootas if all you have is 16 ..then feild 3 groups of 5 ..
they are an easy conversion to do ..so Convert some ..(just another gun from any race to big shoota boy or any two guns from any race to a slugga or shoota boy and voila you have more lootas ..shoulder mount if possible but not required.)
3 groups of 9 should give your enemies pause...
When i take 3 Flyers I take either two warp eads or old zog..and a big mek KFF ..
Big Gunz Kannon and Big Gunz Lobba beat Boom gun ..(it pops to heavy bolter fire) T-7 Artillery with 11 wounds does not pop so easy ...As to where to acuire Big gunz ..do some conversions from the IG heavy weapons squad box ..and use the leftover to make more lootas ..;o)
Automatically Appended Next Post:
Big Gunz from IG Heavy Weapons ..the Morotars become Lobbas ..The Missle Launchers convert to kannon with some wheels and orkification ..the Lascannons , heavy bolters and autocannons to become more Lootas Alternatly the Lascannons can become zzap gunz..

Try kannons, they are really cheap and really good. I also like more lootas, if youre going bring less than ten lootas I would bring 9. Reason is 8 lootas you only need to kill 2 to get a leadership roll, with nine they will need 3. Lootas do not like morale tests. 10 is also kind of the magic number because it maxes out the unit without making them fearless so they can go to ground. If you go greentide orks with gun line support, I would bring 2-3 dakka jets, 20 lootas, 3 groups of kannons and an aegis with quad gun. Just my two cents!

I prefer 10 lootas.
you can GTG when in cover for a great save if you get shot at by anything and you still have alot of lootas

I suggest almost the same list as the OP, with the addition of some more Dakka and a better meatshield leading the way:
Primary Detachment: Orks
HQ: 125
Big Mek: Mek's Tools, Power Klaw, Eavy Armour, Cybork, Kustom Force Feeld
Elites: 270
2X 9 Lootas: Defffguns
Troops: 645
3X 29 Shoota Boyz: Shoota, Nob: Power Klaw
Fast Attak: 360
3X DakkaJets
Heavy: 69
3 Kannon: 6 Free Grots, 3 Ammo Runts
Secondary Detachment: Dread Mob
HQ: 70
Pain Boss: Power Klaw, Urty Syringe, Dok's Tools, Cybork, Eavy Armour, Bosspole, 3 Grot Orderlies
Troop: 180
20 Spanna Boyz: Shootas, Cybork
Fortifications: 100
Aegis Defense Line: Quad Gun
Total: 1849
Cyborked Spanna Boyz and Pain Boss lead the way with 5++ and 5+ Feel No Pain. If he loses his Mob he can join the one behind. 90 Shoota Boyz follow behind with 5+ cover from the Spanna Boyz and the KFF. Lootas harass from afar. Kannons man the Quadgun surrounded by the ADL. Dakka Jets come in to take out other flyers or ground targets.
