What type of core can I send in when purchasing new slick magnetos?

When purchasing a new Slick magneto, Champion charges a core charge. If you currently have a Slick magneto installed, it must be the current series, i.e. 43XX or 63XX, to receive full core credit. Slick currently accepts any Bendix magneto as a core for a new Slick magneto.
