Control Cable Firewall Location - New Mount

With the new RV-7A motor mount temporarily installed on my firewall I was trying to determine where I was going to place the holes for my control cables. My Titan engine is on order with a FM-150 and Superior cold air sump. Originally I was planning on using the carb locations called out in dwg 19 or something close. Now though I see the elastomer pads are in that area so I?m looking for alternatives.

One option is to move the holes up higher into the firewall recess area but I don?t want to limit any future changes to a constant speed prop even though my current plan is to go with a 3 blade Catto. I can?t seem to find any pics of the engine protruding into this area. I?m wondering if any portion of the recess would be better than another area for the cable passthrough.

Also does anyone have any pics that show the control cable routing past the elastomer pads?
