couple o' questions

Is this a good setup or what? i do 3 sets of 8. #2 How do i figure out what my 1 rep max is if lets say i grab a weight that is too low so that i am able to do a 2nd rep but then when i grab a higher weight it is to hard since i would have drained myself a bit. i have never done 1rm so im not sure. #3 ive been reading that deadlift incorporates a ton of muscles but whenever i have done them i have never felt it in my biceps. i am doin bent legged over/underhand deadlifts. #4 i am doin skull crushers, dips, and cable pulldowns 3sets of8 for tri, is this good to continue with? oh and my schedule is mon-chest/bi tue- legs/abs/calves (yes i know they are part of legs) wed-shoulder/tri thu-back/abs/calves thanks for all your help but mostly thanks for reading this post. -nate
