Bob: I would guess that since the cap is the same, the inductance is probably the same. But, like Brett, I haven't seen the Champ so I am really not sure.
I am moving soon and have packed my manuals so I can't look up the part number and it is not stamped on the coil I have. Surely someone here can find the number and post it for us.
