BTW, what are the comments regarding your auto-aircraft engine throttle
position  - when the cable actuator fails??  I note that all aircraft
engine throttles are designed  to fail WIDE OPEN!!  Auto engine
throttles fail CLOSED.

Exactly, I removed the stock throttle actuator, which has two springs,
one
on each side of the intake manifold. Made some small mods to them and
reversed
the spring action so that a broken cable will result in WOT (Wide Open
Throttle).

Perry do we have any pictures of your cooling and engine 
installation?
