Will the Holley EFI fuel rails fit on the LSA supercharger? Until I can test fit, the fuel rail was not ordered.

I do not believe there are any aftermarket rails that fit the OEM superchargers due to the recessed injector bosses.
You do have 2 choices of OEM rails though. The LSA and LS9 rail. The LSA rail is a little taller and fuel enters the passenger side while the LS9 rail is a bit shorter and fuel enters the drivers side. It gives you a little more clearance around the coolant ports on the lid. The LS9 rail does require some slight clearancing around the bypass actuator boss. Cost should be the same. I would recommend the LS9 rail.
LSA: 12605222 or 12622235
LS9: 12602070

Get Some
Finally finished my LSA install. Had problem with the Holley valve covers and flooding the supercharger with oil so I swapped back to the stock covers. The whole install took a while but i didn't want it to look just thrown together.
First I completely disassembled the blower and ported the snout and then the supercharger to match. While it was apart I cleaned and greased the needle bearings and painted the case and snout. Also installed the ADM 2.5 pulley.

I used the IW balancer and metco 9.5 ring, the balancer is a work of art. My crank was keyed so I didn't have to worry about drilling and pinning it. You can aslo see where I mounted the HX pump as well. I have the pump wired to a relay which is triggered by a circuit added to the fuse box. Also added a 15amp circuit to supply 12v to the relay/pump.

I used the lingenfelter idler bracket so I could use the stock 76mm lower idler and a 105mm upper idler to help with the belt wrap on the 2.5 supercharger pulley.

Lots of other stuff I'm probably forgetting but here is the final product.

Very clean install! I'm sure it scoots with that 402 as well. Very nice build! Would love to know long term how you like the LSA, if you would change anything and little stuff like that.

Awesome build Hartigan!! What Hx from frozen boost did you go with?
