Mike,
One big (although expensive) help is to use the swiveling eyeball firewall
penetrations. They provide fire seal, an additional cable sheath grip, and
allow firewall penetration at a step angle to minimize bending at that
point. It allows the cables to remain closer to the firewall and therefore
helps the bend radius at the bottom. The short MAM mount makes cable
routing difficult at best. One other help is the Vans plate that goes
between the carb and sump. It will require custom cables but can minimiz
e routing headaches. Vans can supply the cables as well. Give them a call
for a catalog if you do not have one.

At one time I thought this would be silly but maybe a 360* loop in the
cable is worth considering if all else fails. I put a 180* bend in my
throttle cable with about a 4 or 5 inch radius and the increase in
friction is not noticeable.

Hi all



How have people with firewall cut back routeed throttle and mixture cables,



there does not seem to be room to go straight then down then through
firewall while using a good amount of radius on bends



was thinking of going sideways along firewall then down to floor and back
around to pass through firewall near the floor



thanks for any help, pics would be great
