You can go online to Aircraft Spruce and look at there tubing charts for material. Good prices and consider you basicly buy by foot so you dont have to buy the full length--only what you need, They have a east coast outlet in Georgia. A 225" SFI spec car Im doing now , I have about $1000 in tubing
Kentucky Mark:
It was a Mickey Thompson dragmaster chassis!and it belongs to Dave Huber Rooman knows his stuff! Could you build that chassis and have it NHRA legal? If wearing y'all with these questions I appologize but appreciate the input
AF150:
Don't forget to get the SFI book. No sense building something that won't certify.

Best to get in touch with the NHRA Chassis tech inspector for your area to answer that question before moving forward. He will guide you since the design you are after is not shown in the SFI spec book and you may be restricted to 10sec or slower
jeff/21:
simple answer is yes it can be built from mild steel ERW (cheap)the car will be heavier as the SFI spec is for thicker wall tubing
SFI book will answer a lot of questions
