Very nice. I would suggest that you replace the hoses on the pressure side of the fuel pump w/ the stock pipe. The pleated paper filter for the Q-jet is adequate. If you need an additional filter, I'd suggest getting a metal encased one w/ threaded fittings and custom bend some steel fuel line. Auto parts stores carry precut lengths or you can get a flaring tool and do it yourself.

Why you ask? To prevent an under hood fire when the rubber lines leak/rupture. I've seen the result and it wasn't pretty.
