Machria 77 #26 Posted January 6, 2014 Is mine a tall or short stack single? How do ya tell, and can you just add length to the shute? You have a short chute. You can see the height of mine - hence, tall chute. Never heard of anyone wanting to add length to their chute if it was a short chute. Rob So can I get a newer long chute to fit the GT14?

dbartlett1958 96 #27 Posted January 6, 2014 Machria, You would need the entire tall chute blower. You could not really alter yours to a tall chute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,127 #28 Posted January 6, 2014 So can I get a newer long chute to fit the GT14? I think it depends mainly on the age of the thrower - but I don't know specifics. I converted my 1986 thrower to the tall chute with gear rotation and it was a simple bolt-on swap. You could also fabricate a slightly smaller diameter / taller chute or adapt one from a different brand of thrower / blower. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cdsl810 181 #29 Posted January 6, 2014 My 520-H with a single stage tall just blasted through 17" of fluffy top, wet bottom snow. No sweat for the 520, or for the single stage. It outperformed my neighbor's new track driven walk behind with a 26hp motor. It throws the snow much further and faster, and I get to sit down and enjoy it!
