It depends how fast you go and how many breaks you take.
I'd allow two days.
On a non stop drive, stopping for petrol and depending how fast you were going, you could do it in 12 hours!!
i would guess about 15 hours! but you would have to stop for a snap every now and then! good luck!!
check yahoo maps or map quest and it will tell you :)
