Add up the power consumption for each of those servers. If you plan on installing this in a domestic house or indeed in a normal office environment you probably wont have enough amperage in the circuit you intend to power it from. Sorry to be all doom and gloom. Also this setup will make a great deal of noise. If in a domestic setting put it in the garage. In an office setting the obvious place is a comms room but be careful about the ventilation. Office comms rooms often have a single wall mounted air conditioning unit. Make SURE to run a temperature shutdown script. This air con unit WILL fail over a weekend.
Regarding the software stack I would look at OpenHPC. But that's just me.
