    Info appreciated!
    I’m glad to know where the impeller is, and to know I can adapt a modern one to work.
    No recoil starter, unfortunately.
    I’d be happy as a clam at high tide for any technical info like a manual, or even an exploded drawing.
    So, one was sold by Firestone, and the other by B.F. Goodrich; interesting and amusing.

    Anyone have a guess as to when the Firestone / S-A was made? About the same era, (early / mid 50’s)?

    If the BFG Champion wants to run, I’ll think very seriously about pulling the restrictor plate, and gaining "free" HP. Love that.

    I haven’t dug very deeply, but below is what I’ve found on the Champion, so far.
    Many thanks!
    Alan
