You have a place to build this monster? Another thing, since it's an older used chassis, I strongly recommend you go through it completely. Meaning brake system upgrades and Polyurethane bushings throughout.
It's when ya add up all the peripherals that the true cost is known. Throwing a used engine in a car is one thing. Putting a fresh rebuild in there is something else along with doing the necessary other upgrades - easily doubles or more like triples the cost of a simple engine swap.
So, not throwing cold water on it - but, remember to budget as you go and don't forget wheels and tires - some good sticky tires.
Fuel pump too.
