Carburetor Question

I'm sure it is in here somewhere, but I have yet to come across a forum for carburetors, I went through the fuel ones, but still no luck.
My question is this, for those of you that have used a different carburetor....what model did you use?
I prefer to use a holley (I get a discount).
The catch, the engine will be supercharged (only for a max of 7psi at around 3500rpm)
All on a 352 packard (4 brl)

The Holley bolt pattern doesn't fit the Packard intake manifold.

The Carter AFB/Edelbrock has the correct bolt pattern and is known to work well on dozens of supercharged Studebaker R2 V8s.

Have you considered using the OEM Carter or Rochester? If not, why not?

You might do a search for Edelbrock on site. Several posts over the years, some with model number & type suggestions. One former poster had used them and recommended as a direct replacements (with a couple of minor things additional needed) for the 4GC. I don't remember if there was much info on any supercharging applications.
