Mike, I felt that the area between the sump and the exaust way way to small to rout the throttle cable. (much to close to the exaust pipe). I made a gentle bend about 1 1/2 " below the pipe which gave pleanty of clearance to the cowling. If I remenber , I also made a tie-down attachment for one one the 1/8" pipe thread holes that are on the bottom of the sump. Many years ago I had a Q-2 that had the trottle cable melt at 2000 RPM's. That was it , either 2000 or 0. Needles to say I am still here, but it does linger in my memory.
