I did the Lancair firewall prep and they put the firewall pass throughs in the upper left side (pilot) of the firewall. The mixture cable takes several sharp bends but ultimately works. I'm having problems with the throttle cable routing. As it stands, I have the throttle and mixture cables initially going under the avionics shelf, then penetrating the shelf and arching up behind the canopy gas strut to the firewall.....pretty crazy. There must be a better way. Suggestions?
