Very common, check the FI forum out.

However a n/a h/c setup is not suitable for boost. Boost wants lower CR and the cam will need to be a different profile.

Check out Exoctic Performance Plus they have an article of a nice mild h/c Vette with 14psi on a D1SC, it made well over 700rwhp.

I'd say more than half of the guys that go S/C run the 6.0L heads(72cc chambers) to get the compression down on stock displacement. Also, alot of the guys run the GT2-3 cam and custom grinds(I did). Lower CR=more boost on pump gas.
