I/O board + Power for playing Naomi in a Blast City

All the Capcom I/O boards I have found so far are going for $180 USD or above after shipping.

So I'm trying to come up with a more economic solution, would it work the same way if I use a Sega 600-7143-003 loom (provide power and receive stereo sound input):

plus a Sega I/O board (convert USB control input)?

Video will output directly from Naomi to the monitor.

Thanks in advance.

Does the Blast have 3.3V on the PSU? If not, you're still going to need one for the Naomi.
Also, you may need an Audio AMP if the blast doesn't have one either.

Blast has both 3.3V and an audio amp.

namstephan's economic solution is perfectly fine for the job.
