Tell me one of you motor heads wouldn't want to try this after a big storm.

That's one cool creation. I could blow the snow clear into my neighbors yard! Would love to see a video of it in action.:smash:

I have a brother that lives in Jhole by weasel... he put a 454 INSIDE a late 80's Bronco with the scroll under the chassis, he blows snow a couple hundred FEET clear over his house, he lives next to Jhole airport, and they saw it one day, and now he is the official snowblower/runway cleaner for the Jhole airport... very impressive rig he built in his garage... it's just unbelieveable, I think the 454 may be even turbocharged... wouldn't surprise me if it was, he's a crazy dude :eek:

Looks like a small block to me. Exhaust spacing.

Like the ford 9" driving the auger.

Hahaha! That's hysterical. If we ever get some snow in TN I might have to build one of my own.

Could be, I'm not sure. A buddy emailed me the photo. Either way, would love to hear it run and see how far it can throw stones.:kyle:

I hope it has drive to wheels. It must weigh 700 lbs.

Rev it to 4600 rpm and drive it right through that 4' tall
mount the snowplow just left at the end of the driveway.

But then you would play stupid when the neighbors complain
that big chunks of ice smashed their skylight.

been there..........

That's no smallblock. Look at the size of those cylinder heads.
