Maybe.... LOL It's a strange set up but it ended up working OK at least as far as the hook up is concerned. It pumps a huge amount of pressure without labouring but only time will tell if it turns fast enough to move enough oil for the size of the cylinders. I made a belt drive set up too using some stuff that I had but the pulleys didn't provide enough reduction and the motor would stall at 18bar so I went on to build this. The valve block should be finished today or tomorrow so I really have my fingers crossed that it all works. It's been nearly five months since I started this build and I wanna play!

Thanks for the compliments guys!
