( I sent the following reply to Gary, than thought it best to share with the list)
HI Gary ----- thanks for the reply--------- please notice that because of the great replies I infact have changed my mind and agree that "full throttle at linkage breakage" is the way I'll go, when I get the engine set up in my 601 XL. ( I am planning on using the "William Wynn corvair conversion".)
My 701 ( which I no longer own) had good, hydraulic brakes, and was powered with the Rotax 582 (2 cycle) engine. This engine would rev up real quick and would actually drag the wheels with the brakes on.
My friend's 701 on the other hand had the Rotax 582, and his airplane had very poor, weak, mechenical, drum brakes this is why he recommended I not go with the "full throttle at linkage breakage" set up in my 701. In his airplane, this set-up could have been very dangerous.
Thanks for writing, again I have changed my mind and agree with the "full throttle set-up at linkage breakage"------- Happy flying--- Fritz

Hello Fritz,
The spring to full power is very important.
In fact here, our Instructor and most Experienced Bush Pilot (no AF-1 of course 
Flys a C 180 to the mountains to do mission flights, He has "the spring" in his carburator. and sure is not a Rotax powered Cessna.
By the way he is my Instructor and was the test pilot for our 701. He loved the plane,
