Congrats Tom! Car looks fantastic.
One-off .5 year fuel system isn't that different than the later years - not too many oddball parts - Airbox is slightly different than the 74+ cars, steel intake runners, hand throttle, full-size spare fuel tank with swirl pot, oil pressure fitting is on a banjo instead of the "block" the later cars have.. As long as you have all the parts you'll be fine - it all works the same as the later CIS cars.
One big thing - make sure the cold start injector is not leaking!

Those big rubber overriders are really growing on me.

Edit - one more thing - When you refinish the fuel tank, don't have it coated - it has a plastic "swirl pot" inside which the coating will flake off forever and clog the fuel system.
