General Hints
- The exact push pull cable lengths you need are usually very specific to your airplane / the options you have. Run a pitot hose or something similarly stiff along the planned route and measure exactly what you need.
- If you use the AeroSport Products throttle quadrant, with the standard Van’s firewall pass-through locations, and an IO540 with Barrett cold air induction, and EFII system (specifically the air intake), then the throttle control cable needs to be 70.5” long. So a 176-VTT-2.25-70.5 needs to be ordered from California Push-Pull instead of the 176-VTT-2.25-65.5 that is called out on the AeroSport Products website.
