First thing OP, you know what makes HP?

Weight reduction, Replacing the steel with fibreglass casts would save you power to spend elsewhere.

Otherwise, looks okay.

Go check out ecomodder.com there is a huge list of changes that you can make to the body of any vehicle to reduce resistance and weight.

All car lovers understand this. Have you not though about revamping something with a lighter body and better aero dynamics than a brick on wheels?

Cover that rear well btw. Any case check out the list and ignore all the engine mods unless that is something you can pull out of it.

Personally I would buy an old corolla and start yanking out everything and rebuild it. Light weight. Lots of roof and hood room, plus you could get it passably street legal by the safety standards built into that car.

Might even get enough power distribution to carry 600 lbs.
