Assuming the compression ratio is fairly high, as its an N/A engine, you would probably be best off using a centrifugal charger which works best at higher RPM.

Very useful thanks atleast i know what type of charger to use now. Do you know if it will work with the carbs or would injection be a better option?

Your carbs wouldnt work as they are, as the boost would blow the fuel out of them rathe than it coming in from them, you would be better off on injection IMHO
