ever degree dropped in intake air should be worth 1HP or about a 10% gain. The blower takes power to turn so its kind of a trade off. You could increase boost with the intercooler safely. Speed gain would depend on changes made to overdrive and timing.
Im thinking a extra 2-4 mph depending on which changes were made.

Also, you need to know if you have a steel crank or cast. If I remeber, they started with steel; went to cast; back to steel on some serial number range; and then went back to cast. It's a great, reliable engine but she don't like blowers for too long...
In all sincerity, I do wish you luck and I'd like to hear that you came back 2 seasons later and had no issues worth mentioning after running a blower on this motor.
take care,
jason
