Depending on various vendors, their various kit options, goodies etc, you can get something going for around $35K. You can get it registered as a 1965 “kit car” and from there you can add fuel injection, hotter cams, S/C etc, etc. If you really come into some $$$, you can always drop a lot of cash and get a side-oiler all-aluminum 427 V8 and scare the shit out of yourself. (600+ HP @ $10K+ more)
The $35K version (get 351W block at junk yard from a 1969 Ford XXX donor) will make 400 HP RWHP (with the right Edlebrock parts) and 408 stocker kit and make 400+ HP with nitrous and no S/C. In a 2400 lb car, that's fast.
Get your wrenches out, and start picking pieces up at the junk yard.
Somewhere to dig around for info:
