When I have a blower in my HTM I had to upgrade the fuel lines all to 1/2 inch. A HV mechanical pump should work fine with a blower that size. The jetting sounds low I would have nickerson prep the carb.

jets sound small. i run 90's in all four corners of dual 650's on a 468 with an 871 supercharger, and i run manifold referenced power valves.
blown engines starve for fuel going through mid-range, and can go lean. fuel line sounds too small also, i run 1/2" from tank to carbs.

In my opinion a 3/8 fuel line is kind of small for a blower motor of that size and hp
