The diagrams from Vans for the mixture door at the front intake of the FAB are very poor and confusing. Any advise here would be appreciated. Please post any detailed pictures of your mixture door on the FAB
Also, any hints on the install. Like..........
How far back in the box is the door?
How close is the fit?
Advice on installation
The diagrams on the bypass door are good - but the more important mixture door suck.
Note - Tim Olsen has some verrrry good pictures and advice on the install of the FAB box to the cowling on his web site. Kuddos to Tim.

Mike, is yours an O-540 then, or IO-540?
I left the valve/door off on mine, being an IO-540 and
not worrying about carb ice. I still have the alternate
air opening on the bottom too, which should make it
always possible to get air.
But if you're using an O-540 I understand why you'd
want to move forward on it.

I guess the little door is for the carburetor models - it is not needed on my IO-540 fuel injected model. Only the Alt door at the bottom is needed
