I need a bit of advice putting together a logsplitter for my father in-law. I starting off with a 33" piston,must be 5" or 6" diameter(from a municipal street sweeper). Im going to mount it to a big old i beam. Im wondering about the pump. Right now i have a Vickers vane pump(dont know its GPM)Its pretty big compared to the pumps on the retail splitters. I have an 8 hp honda engine. The shaft on the pump has splines unlike a keyway on the engine shaft side. How do i connect these? Northern sells couplings for this application but i dont know if it will work on spline shaft and the rep only wants to know diameter. Its gonna be a monster if it works.Any Advice.

Don't do it. It won't run that pump. You need to get a 2 stage pump. An 8 horse Honda is a great motor but there's no way it will work. That poor Honda will fall flat on it's face. Northern sells the pump you need.
