Milo I'm in agreement with Ed assuming a 20 GPM pump is mounted to your crankshaft. This is getting so interesting but expensive too. I had to knock the dust off my Hedland Fluid Power Data book and look at the formulas ( refreshing!) I want you to think outside the box ( open minded ). Open the attachment and look at what you are in effect doing to the hydraulic fluid in your closed loop open center hydraulic system. Even an open loop system would create heat going over relief with a flow control valve, i.e.: ( your 'Tee' back into the transmission ).re: the heat /cavitation issue.
I was hoping to avoid that by not completely closing the bypass hose.
I am worried about too much aeration of the bypassed fluid.
The quest continuesThanks for the reply

Milo look at your overall goal with gpm needed with the work you'd like to do and size the system based on its restrictions. ;)[/QUOTE said:In retrospect, I should have sought info on the original pump specs.
Instead of using the "on hand" bigger is better approach.
Thanks for the reply. Good info.

Hah! I love thatSometimes it even works! Ed
