Mike,
If you are using the Jab airbox mounted to the firewall, hook it to an
Adel clamp just inside the airbox prior to the filter. If the cable
isn't long enough, make a cannon plug to go through the firewall, or
make a jumper. I hook all my electrics through the firewall via cannon
plugs. An engine removal or other maintenance is made very simple. If
crimping is a problem for you, buy the right tool and learn to do it
right and you will be thankful. I have a used airplane at the shop I am
rebuilding and it is a pain to run wires direct from the engine to the
panel. You can't remove either the engine or the panel easily for
repairs or mods. Typically, my panels come out in less time than it
takes to take off the engine cowl. Engines take about two hours.
Cannon plugs make that happen.

Subject: Europa-List: Dynon Temp Probe Location?
Good day All,
I have been mulling over where I could/should install the OAT temp
probe used in conjunction with the Dynon EFIS D100. I would like to
install it in the external carb air intake in order to monitor possible
carb icing, but the cable is not long enough to reach the Remote
Magnetic Compass module. I can't mount it under the belly because of the
engine exhaust. So I was wondering where others may have mounted their
probe? Thanks in advance for all replies.
