The Edelbrock manifold should be fine for the blower application.
Yes, do remove all the internal carb passages in the intake. The area directly under the blower should by totally open all the way down to the "floor" of the intake. Why? In reality the flow from the blower into the intake is not uniform---the flow is really greater at the front of the intake than the rear of the intake---so you want the flow in the intake to be without obstruction so the flow can equalize into the cylinder heads.
Just make sure when the blower is mounted on the intake----the crankshaft is parallel to the blower rotors---if not you WILL have a belt problem.
