The people you need to be asking questions of are the people who build race motors, not the peanut gallery on a forum. Someone here posted the contact details of someone who can build you what you want. Why not go and ask them how feasible the project is? The last thing you want is to be past the point of no return and find out what you're trying to do is not possible without a lot more cash.

It's completely ok to do something just because no one else has. Just don't con yourself into thinking it will be more reliable, cheaper, easier or faster than the equivalent FI setup. You're just doing it because no one else has.
