I didn't see anything about long tube headers (or a CAI). They'd be necessary to have a chance at that 450. After that plan on a clutch at minimum to hold the power. Stubs, axles and drive shaft would also be on my short list.

I've spent almost double that to make the car solid and reliable as well and maybe I'm near mid 400s. If I'd spent more on heads I could have made more HP but wouldn't have the drive train (clutch, GMM, drive shaft, axle stubs, wider wheels, 3.91 gears) and full suspension.

If you plan on boosting later, you should definitely factor that into your current build. For example, shooting for 450+rwhp now (naturally aspirated) will require a cam that probably wouldn't pair well with FI later. Do you plan on starting over with a new build when you go FI?
