Firewall Pass Through
Hi. I'm considering this for the throttle and mixture cable firewall pass through. Anyone have any experience with these?

Firewall Pass Through
For throttle and mixture I would (and am) using these

Those are what I used, no aluminum for me on the FW. |

Thanks Dave, after I posted I started to look for myself which is what I should have done in the first place. I?m wondering if the ball will corrode if not stainless. Here in Houston everything rusts in the hangar, even plastic :D

A fella can weld up a tubular steel pass through for about fifty cents. Point it at any angle you wish.

More Welded Tubes
Welded tubes, firesleeve, and Firebarrier 2000+. Tubes were pretty easy to make - even the big angled one in the second photo. I used these for everything including control cables. Each control cable got it's own.

Thanks for the examples guys. Looks like I'll have a buddy of mine weld me up a few of these. What do you recommend for the thickness?
