: ZZ383/425 candidate for forced induction?

Just wondering if the ZZ383/425 crate would be a good foundation for a blow through carbureted project?

(For example ATI's Procharger type Supercharger.)

Maybe a cam swap would be needed, port & polish the heads?

Also could you drop the 9.1:1 with thicker head gaskets?
although if I have read this correct you could boost 8-10 psi at this compression on pump gas?

What do you guys think of this combo? would it be do-able?

"Quoted"
(Out of the crate with 425 horsepower at an incredibly low 5400 RPM, and 460 ft.lbs of torque at 4500 RPM.
4340 nitrided and induction hardened crank and unique forged PM rods.)

Just thinking of options here :)
