If it was mine and were freshening it up I would file fit the new piston rings end gap about 40% bigger on the top ring.

Have you done any acceleration tests with your draggy since adding the lil blower? Looking for the ⅛ mile MPH or the ¼ mile MPH.... This will tell you the net rwhp.
The gain in MPH since N/A tests will tell you the Net Gain in Nst RWHP.
Can be ¼ mi or ⅛ mi data.
