I haven't research these to see if they are the correct ones. If they
are, the price is right.

Hi Craig,
Thank you for your inquire about my Wing Strut Fairing Kit. Ive attached a few
pictures of them for your review. To describe the fairings, they are 6061-T6,
.016 aluminum cut to size and bent to wrap around the standard, round, 701 strut.
They come pre-drilled and ready to install. They are attached to the round
factory strut using 3/32 rivets at each end and by the 3/16 bolt attaching the
Jury Struts to the Wing Strut. I also provide photo installation instructions
and all the rivet hardware to make the installation. After reviewing the attached
material please feel free to e-mail me at your convenience with any additional
questions you may have about the performance increases or installation.
Thank You
Rick

BTW: if you have the money (US$900 as I recall) and want something that
should just drop in then Mark Townsend had this to say last August:
"I have a replacement Streamline strut kit for the 701. I use my custom
extruded strut that I have for my floats and have had CNC fittings on all
ends. This replaces the 4130 tube that you now have. This is not a cheap
alternative, the .016 wrap will provide the cruise increase. I have wrapped
many 701's struts and will continue to do so in the future, but this
streamline strut kit offers a significant quality change to the wrapping of
your struts.

If this streamlined strut kit is the one made in Canada and announced about
a year ago, they were very heavy. The .025 teardrop 6061-t6 sheet covers
that you can make yourself added 8-lbs to the plane. I think these struts
were 4 0r 5 times this weight. Am I correct?

I don't know the weight. What I quoted from Mark is all I have. But at that
price your wallet will be lighten enough to compensate for the extra weight
of the extrusions. :-)
