Just a thought...
Vortec heads are not know for being too good on the exhaust side. Exhaust flow is very important on a forced induction or bottle fed engine, more so than on a NA application because you've increased intake flow and everything that goes in has to come back out.
Are you thinking of a Roots type blower or centrifugal? Any of the paxton/vortech/etc... blowers can be made to work more easily than a roots type.
