Default Carb Bracket

Hi RV'rs,
I have a 0320 on my RV6A -- I will be installing a throttle quadrent and will need the throttle / mixture bracket that goes between the intake manifold and carburator that the cables go through.
Does anyone know where I can get one and what part # to order ???
Thanks
Bob

Default Van's sells them, Bob..

....and the part # is VA-149PC. They also have a new gasket in case your tear up the original....I'd say get one.

Regards,

Default Very pleased....

....thank you and the only complaint is that it is not too durable. We have 400 hours on it now and we routinely get near 200MPH cruise with two up. I picked up a stone and it chipped the leading edge to the point where I could see the glass cloth. Otherwise, it's smooth, fast and well made.

Regards,
