    Welcome to the family.

    I wish you the all the best with your project.

    If you ever get the chance to visit the Zenith factory please take the time to stop by our builder assist facility too. We like to have visitors here and we are right here in Mexico, Mo. just a couple of miles from them.

    Take care and good luck,

    Hi Bob

    I also have a 601xl b with a Jab 3300 but with the ch650 canopy added. I am ready to paint and will do so before I start my engine for the first time to avoid contaminating the surface of the metal with oil residue. Check out my profile for pics and my kitlog website. http://www.mykitlog.com/ch601xl

     

    Your plane looks very nice and I hope your first flight goes well. It looks like you have the Sensenich carbon ground adjustable prop like I have. Let me know what pitch setting are getting what rpm.

    Hi Rob!

    Bob,

    The cooler on my plane failed because an oil line was hitting the cowling.  Otherwise I have had good luck with the brand of cooler I have been using on my airplane.  The cooler is made by Tru-Cool.  It is a low-cost automotive-grade cooler.  The cooler is black in color.

    You can see a picture of the cooler here.
