need a cost esitmate for a titanium 351W
how much would it cost to fabricate a 351W out of titanium. The goal is to make the engine withstand 1300 HP as a daily driver. Titanium Rods pistons heads etc.

It would cost millions, you would have to have engineers design all castings and machinery to machine the block. You would pretty much have to build a factory to build just one block. Plus the material just to build the block would cost 10s of thousands.

my choice of that your be get a crate motor fully build, chevy (yea i know) makes a huge cube motor i think its around 570 something or around there and try to fab it and put it in or just do what i have been telling these 1k hp ppl get a darn 429 scj bore stroke it and gget teh hampton 6-71 supercharger fully built (lawman PPL god.....) that car was in making 1400hp there

Oh, and you're not gonna make 1300 horsepower on pump gas, especially not on an engine that will fit in your engine bay.
Get yourself a turbine engine, it'll be easier, and you'll have almost 500 lb/ft of torque at 0 rpm.

hmmm i see you gave me some more options to achieve 1300hp with more cubic inches of course The goal is however to avoid the engine failing at all. It has to be completely bullet proof.
My question still wasnt answered. but i can get the gist of how everyone felt by their feedback. i know it would cost alot.. i guess i have to go see how much companies charge per cubic inch of titanium and times that by 351 cubic inches, 500 cubic inches to be safe. Now Building a factory to fabricate this..?? is a little over my budget lol. something like $25,000 is more in my budget area. My idea was to get the blueprints of a 351 windsor 1976 and above style. and recreate a replica . just out of titanium though. anything more than 400 Cubes is more than i want comming out. The goal then is to attain 1300HP by a higher compression ratio.
For a 351w stroked bored to atleast something a tiny bit over 400CID and enough boost. i think i can achieve 1300HP. Providing Yates Style heads as well.
Ive seen 6 cylinders make 1100 HP as a daily driver. but even then nothing is just meant to handle that kind of stress for long periods of time.

I think you missed my point and some others as well. $25000 is about 1/4 of what it MIGHT cost to what you want. Thats IF you find a foundry that can/will do this. Next of course is the finish machine work, which would be nearly impossible as titainum is so hard that no conventional boring or milling machines would be able to handle it. I think you should maybe rethink your plan a little bit. Look into aftermarket blocks there are ones out there that can handle that type of power. Think of it this way, a Top Fueler makes 7000+ HP, and while they do come apart a lot, if one was to de-tune it to 1300hp it would last forever. I also think you should look into some form of forced induction.
