Two steps forward, one step back today. Made a bracket for the mixture cable to attach to tthe bottom of the Cold Air Sump, then attached two Adel clamps to that bracket. Verified controls work and direction is correct. Installed the firewal eyeball for the mixture. On the Prop cable I found I could utilize on of the mounting brackets made for the fuel hoses. I needed to remove the bracket and drill it for an AN3 bolt then attach an adel clamp to it and reattach it to the sump, and then reattach the two Adel clamps holding the fuel line. with limited access, it took quite a bit of time. I had to make a run to the parts store in the middle to pick up some DG3 & DG14 clamps to secure the cables after they are set to final position. Had to ocut the prop controller safety wires and repositin the arm slightly, then resafetied the screws. When attempting to do the Throttle, which I thought was going to be straight forward, I found that with the orientation of the fuel servo as I had it mounted, the throttle arm moves in the WRONG direction, i.e. pushing on the control closes the throttle!!!!. I took everything off, hoses. mixture etc. and tried positioning the servo in several other 90 degree orientations, with the mixture diaphram on the bottom it interfers with the cowl, with it on the side it will require an elaborate bracket for the mixture, I ended up putting it back in the original orientation, and I figure I'll need to route the throttle cable differently, and I'll have to do some sort of extension to the throttle control arm to get it moved outboard some more. This seems to be the best approach, stay tuned..
