i just bought this one here (http://www.homedepot.com/prel80/HDUS/EN_US/prodmeta/pg_prodmeta.jsp?CNTTYPE=PROD_META&CNTKEY=Products_2%2fOutdoor+Power+Equipment%2fSnow +Throwers+%26+Access.%2fSnow+Throwers%3a+Gas&BV_SessionID=@@@@1313828333.1134318766@@@@&BV_EngineID=ccdladdghfmldfdcgelceffdfgidgnk.0&MID=9876&ProductOID=651085) it is a 26" but they have it incorrectly listed as a 24". i can go through a 4' pile like a hot knife through butter and shoot the snow 50'.
it is hard to tell what model that ariens is but they range from $1,500 to near $3,000.

i wonder what one of these will go for.....

Talk about BUTCH toys, check out this snow blower.




For the man with everything - the V8 snowblower

If you're tired of anemic, one-lung snowblowers with

their slipping drive

belts, you might consider 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 eight cylinders, 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 get cold 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 cosy.





The first point to make is that this is not a V8 grafted on a

traditional snow blower carriage but a purpose-built unit crafted
around

a motor of this magnitude. It functions very much like a traditional

blower by way of operator input and feedback and offers effortless safe

operation.





Maneuvering the massive beast (it has a total wet weight of 912lbs)

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 rhumba 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

snowblower 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."

Gravely from the early 70's. It was my grandfather's that he gave to my dad. Last year it finally had a new piston put in it and that's it. Too bad I couldn't get the entire rooster tail captured:ermm:
