Healing/Northrend Levelling Advice

Hi everyone.
Me and a few of my friends decided to roll characters on Thaurissan over our 2 week holidays. So far I'm 67 and I've got a few questions about Paladins in Northrend.
I'm planning on instancing quite a bit in Northrend - I've got an 80 priest so I've been through it before. Currently I'm Ret/Holy dual spec - I've been collecting holy gear in outland, but at the moment I only have about 350SP. I've been healing a few instances as holy but I run OOM fairly quickly.
What are the minimum stats I should be looking for to start healing Northrend instances? My spell crit isn't all that high, around 17%, which might be why I'm running OOM fast. I also seem to be needing to spam Holy Light a lot, I healed Mana Tombs tonight but most of it consisted of Holy Light spam.
I don't know how we didn't wipe, but I just checked my bars and I'm using rank 3 FoL and equivalent-level rank of HL... I think my bars have screwed up the ranks somewhere when I got dual spec (level 49) and not updated since then. *facepalm*
Assuming I redo my bars tomorrow morning, what should I be aiming for before heading into Nexus and UK?
Also some more questions, don't go anywhere!
I'd like to go Holy/Prot dual spec at 80, and I'm wondering whether I should respec for Northrend into these two. Obviously then my 'questing' solo spec would be prot, but I'm wondering how effective it is at killing mobs as opposed to ret. I won't be AoE grinding, mostly just questing, but ideally instancing where I can. If it's not too much of a difference I'm happy to give it a go :)
However, my prot gear is non-existant, it basically consists of my ret gear + 1h/shield. Would I be a decent with this gear or should I not worry about tanking until I've geared up?
Thanks guys, maintenance night makes theorycrafting fun ^_^

Sorry,
here's my armory
.
Looks like I'll be going Holy/Ret then, thanks for letting me know. Healing should also be a lot more fun now that I can stop using my SM-level heals - I usually have loads of fun healing.
