If its a stock engine that hasn't been rebuilt in years a blower would just kill it.If it was me i would look in to a 347 stroker built to handle a blower then add the blower later on.

Old motors actually work well with blowers. Tend to bleed of cyl pressure you get stock cams, and older worn out rings have a widened ring gap.
