I'm finishing up building a 601XL and used the William Wynne book you can find at this link:
http://flycorvair.com/601im.html
I have that carb also and have fuel pump on the firewall feeding the carb no issues but ya gotta use the right pump. The book details these and many other things.
In the book he shows mounting the battery behind the passenger seat which should help with the W/B.
Get the book. it will help.

Ralph:
What is your safety system if you use an electric fuel pump 100% of the time?
What will happen if:
The battery fails?
What will happen if the pump fails?
Does the Corvair engine have a mechanical fuel pump?
