Thanks for the reply... to be honest, it is going to be a stretch to make the soffits work. Depending on how the blocks are nailed in, I was going to try to pry one off, every 4th rafter or so, and work with them on the ground before reinstalling. My thought was to use a 2"x8" or 2"x10" vent to maximize the intake, and allow me to spread them out a bit... like I said, a stretch at best.

The idea of a gable vent is much more appealling from an installation perspective, but I'm concerned about creating a bunch of dead air space by not having soffits at all. The 2 gable vents might produce crossflow, or they could just feed the ridge vent.
