Hmm. A larger motor...I've seen a few trucks sitting around that may like to be donors for this sort of project. Maybe a chevy truck blower? Or would you recommend a different type of motor altogether? Would it be worth setting up a belt or chain drive? Thanks for going out there and checking out how hard it is to pull that blower motor. When I said 0 degrees I meant Farenheit, which might be close to -15 C. I cant do the conversion in my head.
