OK here is my first ever post. I am starting my firewall forward installation. RV8, O360 A1A carb. I am trying to build this plane simple and light.
I just received my throttle , Mixture and prop cables form Vans. Both the prop control and mixture controls are listed in the vans catalog a 55" and in their FWF kit for the RV8 with my engine.
It appears that the prop gov. cable is at lead 5" to 7" too long. I am using a MT style Gov. and the Van's bracket. The cable could work but leaves a large curve between where it enters the firewall and the Gov. bracket.
If anyone know where I can get some pictures of this area or has many comments on this cable please let me know.
I am using a Van's deluxe quadrant. I also need some guidance on what is bet to use on the firewall where the cable goes thru.
Thanks
