Its old school and belt drives the second pump off the crank as opposed to piggy backing the two pumps. (if my pump fails I can buy the double pump in the future) It was about 25 hours to install and I had to machine a spacer to put the pulley on the NH engine. Total cash outlay was about 600 plus labour. There was no rocket science to mine and back then hi flow was a dealer installed kit.Today dealers installing a kit would be pretty cost prohibited for the reasons mentioned, but doing it yourself or helping a local mechanic do it would work on machine that had good life left in them.Many people mistakenly think their Bobcat has hi flow because the switch is there on all medium and large frame models.Ken</blockquote>
