$130 for the MC and pedal is s good deal. And why not? I'd love to see how you went about mounting everything. I'm sure others would agree.

I will post a majority of them at the same time in sequence when the car is completed.

I am not posting any engine shots until its completed.

You might want to replace that strainer while you are there. Make sure to keep the rubber o-rings and replace it. That's covered in the various write ups for the fuel filter.

23217-46090 Strainer
23229-16010 Clip (for strainer)
77169-33020 Gasket for fuel pump assembly
