My problem is even at 10HP when I hit a rock it cuts off the shear bolts. If I put in harder bolts it either bends the augers or ripps out the bolt holes, or both. I am thinking about how to get rid of the shear pins and build a viscous clutch.

 

that. thing. is. nasty.

someone has too much time on their hands haha

 

A V8 snow blower ?


Now Tim (the toolman) Taylor would have at least 2 of those

 

With the fuel that 454 is sucking down, its probably cheaper to pay someone to do the snow blowing. If I was going to take the build that far I would have put a 6-71 blower on it with wheelie bars out the rear. One of a kind Drag 'N' Blow set up.

 

That sounds like some kind of reality T.V. show on the LOGO network. Eeeeew!

 

I'm jealous...we've only had an inch or so of snow so far a few weeks ago...and we are supposed to live in the Great White North!! Bahhhh.....

 

I was wearing shorts and a tee shirt at work today. It rained that is rare here in the devils oven.

 

Its still above freezing temps here and no snow at all and its the middle of December!!

 

The local news today said that we in Phoenix, have had 29 times more rain in December than Seattle... weird weather

 

Oh man, that sounds so nice. I am so done with living the life of a hermit in the winter time. Gotta appreciate that Sun and temps. Look forward to living in a winter climate where I can walk outside and not get soaked from rain or frost bite.

 

big block shivy? nah this is a cummins forum, some body build a 6bt snowblower.

 

I was travelling through California in Feb 1982 to do some forestry bids in Oregon and they had a huge storm that flooded the San Francisco area and that same storm went over the mountains and turned into snow and dumped 10 feet of snow in 1 night on Lake Tahoe. We had to go through there the next day and it was amazing they had all the roads clear but it was like driving through a tunnel the snow was heaped up so high

 

My 65 bolens 1000 with a kohler 12hp and a snowblower single stage on it. works great

 

Brandon,

Where are the "Cummins powered" mud flaps you had on that thing last year ? Someone steal them ??????

 

Whatchu talkin' bout Tman ?
