If you're tired of anemic, one-lung snowblowers with their slipping drive
belts, you migh t c onsider Kai Grundt's V8 snow blower which raises the
bar on the traditional snow blower in every respect. With electric start,
electric block heater, antifreeze heater and eigh t c ylinders, it has no
drive belts to freeze up and you'll never get bored with the job as the
454 cubic inch big block Chevrolet V8 produces 412 horsepower, 430 foot
pounds of torque and can throw snow 50 feet at just 3500 rpm.

Nor will you ge t c old as the machine has been ingeniously designed to
route the engine coolant through the handle bars, with the rear mounted,
enclosed radiator keeping the operator nice and cozy.

Maneuvering the massive beast (it has a total wet weight of 912 lbs) is a
breeze thanks to the hydraulic-drive 4WD skid steer on independent walking
beams which offers a zero turning radius. It's also as fast as you like,
with an infinitely adjustable speed range on the drive wheels via dash
mounted flow control. At the opposite end of the scale, it has more than
enough torque to pull your car out of the ditch before the hydraulic
motors stall!

Adding to the well-balanced feel of the unit, just 15 pounds of down force
on the handlebars will lift the auger blade off the ground in order to
climb stairs/walkways for ease of snow removal. Safety has and continues
to be paramount with spring return to centre "fail safe" type directional
controls with emergency stop and tether cords.

Safety is one of the key theme, with a flashing blue light (as required by
law in many areas) being the least of the safety features. No-one will
fail to hear you with those twin throaty exhausts, which come standard
with 92 decibels at the controls, though if the rumble of a V8 exhaust is
music to your ears, you can obviously go much louder. Even at the standard
baffling, hearing protection is strongly suggested.

The powerful yard machine lights and a dashboard with backlit gauges
complete the package to ease the burden of this normally reviled task. The
custom 42 inch, two stage auger has a Chevrolet 10 bolt truck differential
with spool and a centrifugal auger clutch with shear pin protection,
further adding to the image of this "automotive theme blower." As each
unit is cutom-built, optional extras for the snow blower are both diverse
and outrageous as the base unit - there is unlimited auger choices from
single to multi stage designs and various motor combinations to suit the
religious preferences of the customer (Chevy, Dodge Hemi, Ford) and such
exotica as a V-10 or a diesel engine or remote starting can be
accommodated. And if, after a while, you feel you've outgrown the 400
horses, this particular engine is well catered for in the performance
modification area, with Lunati camshaft, Milodon Gear drive, Holley and
Edelbrock components to name a few, and there's always the fuel injection
option too, if you feel you need to throw the snow out of the county or
ensure your seat in the "neighborhood blower blingster hall of fame."
