Default ECI Engine Install

Couple quick questions if someone can answer them. Going to be installing a ECI 360 with the cold induction front facing sump and Silverhawk F.I., are the cables provided by Vans for throttle and mixture the correct lenghts or do they need to be special ordered and will the standard throttle bracket work or is that a bench made item?

I take it the holes in the firewall are per Vans plans even though its a Lyclone engine, correct?

Thanks,

James

Default cables

I have the same setup and my cables from vans worked perfectly. The brackets that came with the kit also worked. I had to order an offset arm for the mixture control as it hit the starter. I have pictures if you need.
