II have a Jabiru 3300 mounted to my 601 XL-B.  If you have a 601 or 650 with a Jab that you've converted the nose gear to the "puck" system. did you have to adjust the number of pucks to accommodate the Jab's weight?

FWIW I have the puck system and Jabiru 3300 on my STOL 750.  I didn't have to adjust the number of pucks due to the Jabiru's light weight.  Instead, you adjust the pre-load so the steering arms of the nosegear leg are just off the notch of the lower bearing and that worked out great.
