Default RV-8 MT Prop Governor Installation Pictures

Does anyone have any shots of an installed MT prop governor with the bracket and cable, preferably on an 8?

If not, I'm taking pictures, but trying to reduce the trial an error of the clocking of the control arm and location of the bracket.

Thanks!

Default check you email

I sent you an email with my email address. I'll send you a pic via that mode. I'm to lazy to go thru the nut-roll of trying to post pix in a forum format.

Default Prop governor installation pics

As promised, here are some pics of the prop governor installed on an RV8. Click the image for more pictures, but it was quite straightforward. The most difficult part was the safety wire, which turned out kind of ugly. Another one of those cases of "looks really hard" before you start, then once you get into it, becomes pretty obvious how to do it.
