40c running a wood splitter?

Okay, I think I made a mistake. I read "loader" valve in your post, and thought you had a loader crawler. If you are talking about your 40, then no, you have a factory pump, 8GPM give or take at 950-1050 PSI.
Check with your insurance agent and see if you can schedule the crawler, rather than trying to get them to accept a value. If you schedule it, you pick the value, and there is no further arguement. I would personally not insure it for less than $5000. If you lose it completely, think about replacement time, and the one you find to replace it may be 1000 miles away.

Lavoy- Are the hydreco pumps reasonably available, and would it be a simple retro?

I finally found a few minutes to check pressure and came up with 950 psi at idle, from just off idle to full throttle it makes 1200 psi. All I can see on the pump is M 1026 T. I think with a 4.5 inch cyl I can make about a 10 ton spliiter- that should be plenty for most of what Ill be splitting. Thanks to all for the help. Hope to have some pictures in a few weeks.
