Hey Face, good to see you posting this. It can easily be done. Cam is your biggest obstacle for the fuel selection and comp ratio. What feels good to you? I like blowers in all shapes and forms. There isn't a project that I haven't tried a turbo with (toungue in cheek) and it can be done. Most will tell you to back it down on comp ratio and select the right cam. I agree in most cases. NO BOMBS! If your heart is really set on it, change the cam to a suitable pick, keep the 110 running in it for fuel and go very conservative in boost pressures. The racing world said we couldn't run 13.75 C/R in our TA/FC and we ended up setting the national record for three years in a row on the same combo with 50+ runs between tear downs. Hang in there bud and you'll get it done. Remember the temp needs to be controlled at the clyinder head and heat it up in the lower part of the cylinder. Turbos and blowers are all forced induction. How we achieve it is a bit different. Which do you prefer? Turbo or Blower?
