Holley also has complete, bolt in exhaust systems that work with their headers and transmission crossmembers.

      For fuel system, get in touch with Carl at VaporWerx...or Dale Schwartz can probably hook you up too!

      Should double check for Holley mounts with an LSA since they move the engine forward relative to other mounts and the LSA is longer due to supercharger pulleys with the stock accessory drive. Holley accessories will not work with AC on an LSA.

      I am a fan of Holley stuff but not certain it is the best choice for an LSA without doing some research. I do know they ignored the LSA when they designed their system.
