Frank,
The F4B throttle bracket, holding the outer sheath, was originally held
just behind the left-rear carb mounting stud. The bracket mounted the
cable with a vertically bent surface, parallel to the firewall, which
was then bent to run under both the left side carb studs with a narrow
extension piece. I have found that a simple right angle bend with one
mounting hole, and a good lock nut to keep it from rotating, and the
cable housing hole, is more than adequate.
Cheap Graphic:
Bracket
Cable --> ---L|_ <--"stud"
--------------- <-- Carb base
Best I could do without graphic enclosure. :-)
If this isn't clear enough, I will take a picture and send it to you
personally, as the List will not take enclosures.
