I'd really like to find one that's either lightly-used, or one that has a blown engine that I could modify to be powered off of my Cub 123 or my Speedex 1631. I'll add some pictures here later.
Most tractors don't have the flow needed to run a splitter as fast as a stand alone engine.. Even some big tractors have a problem with it..

This has always been my thinking on shredders too, why would I run my tractor hours on end when the little engine will do.I have seen guys run the spliter pump from a gt pto. This also serves as an auxiliary hydraulic supply for other attatchment. Personally, I am not sure I would do it that way. Not because I don't think it would work, mainly because the 5 HP would be easier on gas and wouldn't want to put the extra hours on an engine that would cost more to rebuild than what you could by a clone for
