Larry,
I did the same exact thing .. I had backdrilled the top doubler following the directions
from Zenith. I ordered three new parts yesterday: both top doublers
and the forward bottom doubler. All will cost you about $50.

Hi guys,
For you who fly behind the Stratus Subaru or just do dual ignition on
one of the varieties,
Ive been revisiting my engine wiring and found my ignition coil plates
are rusty from the moist air coming thru the cowl. Having spares has
real merit because spare parts are often discontinued after 10 years or
so. Ignition coils purchased nearly 8years ago for $35.00 each are now
$93.00. Useful alternatives to the pricey Echlin IC107 coils can be
found by searching for coils used on a 1987-1990 Mitsubishi wagon or
van. The equivalent parts are easier to find at $30.00 and up. I chose
ORiellys Auto Parts on line and they have 4 sources for this coil.
Ive maintained a spares box for all things consumable, brake pads,
bungees, fuel lines, scat tube etc, and after only 157 hours of flight,
I guess coils are next.
Fly safe guys,

I know this is an old thread, but does anyone know what became of the Zipper? I
mean real part 103! Heck If I had seen this thing 3 years ago I'd have found
one and I'd be building a 601 instead of a 701! Well not really, maybe a Buttercup,
I really am kind of a high wing guy.

I have one in my hangar and doing a restoration on it. You can go to my
Yahoo group I started for other Zipper owners or wanna be owners. Not a lot
going on there yet but expect a lot of pictures and stories on the project.

Thanks,
But your group is how I found out about it!
It really is a cool airframe.

IT is a really light plane, with the new engines out here with more power and lighter
than the old Rotax 277. it will be a nice permormer. The rudder and horizontal
is just like the 701, well the construction methods are identical, the
airfoil on the horizontal is different but the rudder is the same as the 601
and 701
