Welcome to CHR, Tyler -

Sounds like the pros above have already covered the one major factor, i.e., you need a very big bucket of money. When I first saw your post I ball parked $35-50K without bating an eye. I laud your enthusiasm and wish you well in this project. Listen to Jerry - he's built a lot of very fast and always competitive cars over his career. His expertise is legendary. If Pat McCarthy chimes in on motor build you'll be doubly blessed as he's built ton's of big blocks and knows how to not only make them go fast but last a long time as well.

The one thing that's hard to quantify is your desire to see the project through to completion. Time and hard work need to coordinate with smart decisions - knowing what you can do and what's best to have done.

Good luck and keep us informed as the project develops! We love to see a plan come together and will be your cheer leading squad.

Regards,
Glenn
