Based on what I've seen, if I were to do it again I would give andy at A&A Corvette a call. Go with the single IC setup that he does. Going the single IC route, gives 1-2psi more boost, and you also dont have to worry about overheating, as the single IC retains the 2 stock fans vs the single fan with the ATI dual IC kit. It also cheaper

You've already done a lot, and a head/cam package may suffice for the time being and then afterwards you could slap on the blower. I'd venture to say the blower will give you more power, but if you did some mild head work and a blower cam along w/ the blower the benefits would be maximized better as opposed to just slappin on a set of heads and cam more suited for an n/a application

I'm going through the same thing right now. Trying to get advice on the best setup for the the procharger. Try looking on corvetteforum.com in the forced induction/nitrous section. I have a few interesting threads going on there now, and theres all kinds of info including tons of people who have already been through it. That should help you out a good bit. Good luck.
