it wouldnt be hard at all if your good at fabricating
i made a paintball gun into remote control for a friend, it used a tripod and rc trigger, it was pretty wicked, sat on top of a tripod

i would use tires from something like a savage or lst, something big, and diffs from cen genesis, nemesis, etc, would handle the power of that engine, i hope you have a big wallet

like said above if you can fab then your good.

You may want to look at the hpi baja 5b to see what is involved with that kind of power, they only use a 30cc motor (some a little less) and they have huge diffs that put all 1/8 scale parts to shame as well as MUCH stronger steering servos. It can be done just make sure you have a look at other things in that category before basing it too much off of "normal" monster trucks
