I'm wondering if some of you would be so kind as to post pics of your engine installation showing how the throttle and ventilation door controls are hooked up. I have a DL-50 that might be about 18 months old, and I am just now getting it installed in an Extra 330L that also is that old. This is my first gasser. I actually have seen a few pics on different posts, and in one I saw a guy hook up a manual pushrod for the ventilation door. On another pic, it looked that there was nothing hooked up to the ventilation door. That leads me to the question on whether it has to be hooked up at all. Seems it would vibrate any which way though, if not hooked up to something positive. Attached is a pic of my engine just in case there were different versions. Thanks guys! Jon


STILL hopin some of you can post some pics of your linkages to the engine to help me along on my first gasser. I want to see how you route the throttle linkage to a servo, and what you have to do on the manual ventilation arm. Thanks! Jon
