How to reconnect the throttle cable to pedal?

I forget exactly how the order is. Does that big rubber disk go on the front side or the back side of the pedal? Also does the plastic clip actually snap into the pedal? This is what happens when your car is apart for months!

Going to fire it up for the first time next weekend as long as I get the speedo driven gear I broke!! 383 with Super Ram, Bosch 24# SVO's, MSD, Edelbrock 58 mm TB, 700R4 tranny, Eibach springs, Koni 12 way adjustable shocks and struts, and more!! Please pray that it runs when I try to start it....I've never done this before you know.

"...big rubber disk..." Guess it's been too long since I actually HAD mine apart.

The only "big rubber" thing I recall was the mount to the firewall around the cable case. The plastic clip snaps into the slotted hole in the pedal lever, as I recall.
