Looks good, just get rid of the triangle of doom (air cleaner) those things are notorious for starting fires.

I've heard that as well. Foam gets hard and breaks up and can be sucked into the carb.

Not sure how advisable it is to do the whole high micron prefilter thing. I have a straight-line (non-filtered) line here, but it's kinda bent.

Need a filter after pump. Not a glass one. Cheap Wix plastic one worked for me on a few cars. Or get the nice ones with the removable element.

Like I said I'm not sure how your fuel pump is gonna like pulling through the TBI filter. I seem to recall it's around 35-40 micron.
