Brief Description: Front Mounted Prop Governor Cable Routing - Part 2
To orientate the bracket, I removed two screws from the governor at 12 o'clock and 2 o'clock positions. I placed the bracket on the governor and then rotated it counter-clockwise until it just hit the screw at the 10 o'clock position. I marked the two stock hole locations from the bracket onto the governor with a sharpie. I then took the rest of the screws out and with the cap on the work bench I put the bracket on the cap and realigned it with the two marks I had made earlier. Then, from the INSIDE of the cap, I marked the actual cap mounting holes onto the bracket with a sharpie. Over to the drill press to drill the two new marks on the bracket with a #19 drill and then reassemble the whole thing. As you can see from the photos, the alignment came out perfect.
The control cable I'm using is the standard length RV-10 prop governor cable and, at least for the RV-8, is the perfect size.
