To answer my own question, I did a Google search and found lots of information on this conversion.
The question has already been asked earlier,but I don't see any reply? Is there someone supplying a firewall forward kit or packages supplying everything needed? Thanks
I'm putting an RX1 in a 701, just beginning though.
Wow,hope I can get to Davenpor Fl, next winter and able to see your plane at one of the fly ins.
Robert - Is this Apex installation a one-off or is someone developing a firewall-forward package for the STOL 750?

Looks great, had a Yamaha Apex Snowmobile with that engine , awesome power and smooth running.

It is good to hear that another zenith stol builder is in Ocala. I have my recently completed 701 at X35. It is a blast to fly and very well behaved. I did not paint mine yet for a number of reasons but mostly due to a lack of facilities. Is your paint shop local? If you don't mind can you share any information about who and where you are using?
You are going to have a little rocket with all that power.
Thanks

Oh, VERY exciting! I've been following the Yahama group over on FB and was hoping to see someone do this with a Zenith. :)
I knew someone would eventually mate-up a 150 hp APEX to the 750 STOL ... great combo of light weight and more power!
