0-540 Throttle and Mixture brackets

[TrueAirSpeed]

For those building RV-10s with a carburetor instead of fuel injection, what is your source for the throttle and mixture control bracket?

I know you don't want to hear this, but it's very much worth your while to go with fuel injection instead of a carb. The efficiency and control are wonderful. It's not that expensive and will pay for itself in efficiency.

Thanks!

Agree to a point.

540 carb throttle / mixture bracket

Hi Terry,

I see you are building a bearhawk - great choice to go with an RV! I am working on a BH 4 place and flying my RV4 I built.

What I did for bracket on carb 540 is start with the Vans bracket and did a bit of fabrication. A little cutting and welding but not bad.

Thanks Steve!

I have fabrication as an alternative, but thought I would look for off the shelf first. Thanks again and good luck.
