|
|
I ordered and received my Jab 3300 and FWF kit for my 601XL about 2 years ago (just as Jab USA was locating from Wisconsin to Tennessee) and first flew it in July of last year.
I had great support from Pete during my installation and have had had exceptional support from Jabiru USA.since.
If you call Dana for any parts, she usually has them "in the mail" the same day.
An example of post procurement support from Pete is that during my first annual conditional inspection I found a crack in my muffler where the exhaust "pipe" enters the "can" (probably a MIG weld vice the current TIG welds). I called Pete to see if it was under warranty and he said to just sent it to him. Even though Jab USA was busy getting ready to go to OSH, I received my repaired muffler (both pipe welds re-welded) back in a timely manner.
NOTE: I have found that it is a whole lot easier to mount the engine to the mount, then mount the engine/mount package to the firewall. I did this during original installation and again during my annual inspection when I installed Jab shims underneath the lower vibration isolators to correct a little sag.

Stan,
Same with me, it is a very nice firewall forward package but I do not see anywhere near the 105 mph that was advertised. I have ordered strut fairings to try to squeak a little more out of it. I also enjoy the scenery below as I tour the countryside.
