What goodies do I need to build a Fast slant 6

It's those dang blow-through carbs that can get make it expensive, fast!

no doubt, but the point of the reference was it can be done and doesn't need to be tig welded stainless etc. hell, could be done with mostly junkyard parts. Street racers do this kind of stuff all the time. A lot of them take it as a personal challenge to do it on the cheap of simply have no choice.

Improvise, Adapt and Overcome.. :)
