How do you plan on removing the engine? A piece at a time?

Ya it takes alot of time, but is looking good so far.
Roll cage is critical for saftey,
suspension & steering are critical for performance.

Make sure to spend some time on the front end geometry and get the caster,camber how you want it thru the full suspension cycle.
also check your bump steer, determine what rack you will be using.

This may determine where your A arm pivot points and some support bars are placed.

Keep up the good work

Like said earlier. Start cycling that suspension with your rack and tie rods on. Get it dialed now when its only takes time and not money.
