6x2x2 would be good for her. Animal Plastics has a rather economical one.

Re: what size enclosure do i need for a 7ft plus boa
Agree with mink a 6x2x2 would be nice. It's what my girl will be going in (although I expect her to stay a little smaller).
I think she'd use more space if provided though so 6x3x3 if you've got the space and the skills to make one this big, or if you don't think she'll use the height 6x3x2 to give her the floor space as she may grow a little more yet over her life.

Re: what size enclosure do i need for a 7ft plus boa
Me, personally, I'm going with the BoaMaster 8'x3'x30" melamine enclosures for my Boas, Carpet, and Asian Rat.
There're going to be heavy, i.e. built like a tank, but I won't have to upgrade ever again.

You're going to need a fork lift lol they're nice enclosures though 
My sunglow girl will be going into an 8' cage when she's full grown. I feel like she'll use the space. Like others said 6x2 would be a good size. Nice boa btw

Re: what size enclosure do i need for a 7ft plus boa
Carrying the individual panels upstairs will be rather interesting, but not impossible; however, carrying down the finished box, when I eventually move, will be the real challenge.
Luckily I can disassemble, scrape off the old silicone, ship, reassemble, and re-caulk and meh...no issues! I also use 1-5/8 drywall screws, so using the same holes with new 2" screws will be okay; or, I can go to a larger width screw if necessary (the 3/4 particle board will allow for that).
