[QUOTE="skayser2, post: 39152, member: 2179"] I realize viscosity of the fluid and the fact that the fluid is not recirculated in this application would slow things down, especially in the beginning. Follow these links to see if I'm thinking correctly. (http://www.baumhydraulics.com/calculators/cyl_speed.htm) 10gpm- 2.5" bore- 10" stroke- 1.125 rod diameter= 2.3 second cycle time This formula is used to determine cylinder speed at a certain size and GPM pump supply.
