I think what Dave means is yes to getting it out. I have had the same problem with Firestone motors & destroyed the housing. I decided to try some heat around the aluminum to expand the metal around the impeller housing. I found with ScottAtwater they glued the impeller housing to the base of the gearcase & heat released it. Remember this was a totally different brand of motor too. Just a suggestion as there is no repacements for Firestone. Good luck & someone may have a better method.
