Default Adding blowers to HP500EFI's

What changes would be necessary to add a set of blowers to a hp500 efis?? I have access to a set of 10-71's and am considering having them added when I rebuild these motors (if I dont sell them). Will the internal parts withstand the load?? Would i need to make changes to the engine?? I would like to make 750hp..... This would be carbureted of course.

I have the 10-71's and I also have access to a set of 14-71's that I need to sell. They are Blower shop setups w/o carbs. What do you think they are worth??
