All,

  

 I have decided to put a wet wing in the 601. This is done all the time in  the vans RV which I have built. My reasoning for this is due to the fact the 15  gal tanks from Zenith cost 1,500 and I can build a wet wing in the 601 for about  300. Has anyone done this? If so do you have plans? I have it in my head how I'm  going to do it but why re invent the wheel? I spoke with Zenith and  they said it wouldn't be a problem so next week as soon as I finish the two  fuselage's I am cutting the LE.

  

 This would be a good way for the scratch builder's out there to save some  time and money also.

If you are making a wet wing with LE tanks, why not move them outboard a bay or two. Keep the fuel as far away from teh egress path and the cockpit as possible?
