Matt,
    Prop governor:  I used the 1/4 inch threaded end with a rod end
attached on the inside of the 1/4 inch arm off the back of the governor. 
(It is mounted on the inside to get you as close as you can to the
following item.)  I used a Mod Works attachment arm/flange (modified to
accommodate repositioning) attached on the copilot's side of the back of
the governor (I'll get you the ordering info in a couple of days).  The
prop cable is attached to that aluminum arm via AN3 bolts and spacers.  The
flange is quite long (needed for bracing the cable).  The cable penetrates
the firewall on the far right side.  (I just about had to move my cabin
heat valve but it just clears this set up.  If you have mounted something
between the governor and the right side, you may have to move what ever it
is, unless someone else knows of an alternative.
   Throttle cable:  My servo is mounted facing forward with a 90 degree
elbow between it and the bottom of the engine.  Again I used a 1/4 inch
threaded cable with a rod end attached.  I used about 10 inches of the .125
inch thick piece of "L" shaped angle aluminum to attached to the two aft
most studs on the bottom of the engine (on top of the 90 elbow) as a brace
for both the throttle and mixture control cables.  Worked out pretty neat I
think.
   I've taken pictures of this set up and will be forwarding them to Marv
for posting.  Sorry I can't help with the 10/32.
