Electric Start conversions..
Having done numerous automotive engine and transmission swaps in my younger daze.. and having "built" numerous lawnmowers out of piles of parts.. still have my 1982 Snapper, on it's 4th engine..
Anyway.. the starter motor kit in e-bay is over $100.00 delivered and then more parts and drilling and tapping and a battery and a charging system will all be needed..
Might be time to sell the pull to start Champion on Craigslist and buy a new electric start (Camping World?)
Just my opinion, I could be wrong..
I get ajada thinking about drilling into my engine block..
