Question vortec 7400

whats up guys? I'm new to the forum and I was just looking for maybe a little input on the motor im putting together. what im trying to do is get the best I can get out of this block without boring the motor. I have a 76 chevy k10 shortbox, I found a vortec 7400 in a local scrap yard so I have big dreams for this motor. my current set up is edelbrock 750 cfm carb, edelbrock 7164 aluminum intake, comp cam, 1966 427 corvette oval port closed chamber heads casting # 3904390 rated at 98.4cc, mallory billet distributor, headers and a th 400 tranny. The only thing I'm worried about is the fact that this big block is a vortec motor, so I'm kinda worried that it would work naturally with my carburator. would I have any problems with this Gen VI engine block? and if not, whats the best way to maybe get a guess of how much hp and torque gains I may have? Hope to get some responses soon. thanks
