Still more on 4" 1911 recoil systems: Reverse plugs
Whether the Reverse Plug that comes with the Wilson Flat-Wire Recoil Spring Kit will fit a Springfield Champion has been bugging me ever since the general subject came up.
To me, it looks like the flanged portion might be a little long, which I think might in turn require more relief in the slide for the part to fit.

This worry was at once compounded and relieved this morning when I more or less stumbled upon another source for this type of kit: Springfield (!) 4" Guide Rod & Spring Kit @ EGW
I thought the 'collar' on a Springfield reverse plug might be shorter than it is on the Wilson, and it looks like it is.

Hope this isn't too late to help.
