Yes, that is way to much pump for the task with single belt drive.
Control valve is fine. Flow control valve is not the answer.
Don't have time for more details now if someone else wants to jump in.
Other than going to a much smaller pump you may try the following. Does the pump have a relief valve you can lower the pressure it takes to bypass. Or you my want to put a bypass line from the pump back to the reservoir tank. Install a adjustable pressure relief valve in it set low enough so it bypass's instead of slipping the belt. You have way to much oil coming out of the pump. If you can bypass enough of it back to the tank and still flow enough at a pressure high enough to run the tilt you could be in business. Either way to make this pump work you need the extra oil to go somewhere. Maybe somebody else will chime in with a better idea.
There is no way that the v belt has enough wrap on the driving pulley. try direct driving a smaller pump from the old gen input shaft
Hi Stephen,
the following formula is for Hyd. Hp.= GPM x PSI divided by 1714
Your system as it stands is asking for around 23 Hp to drive it to supply 20GPM at 2000psi.
As suggested above a smaller output pump is needed, the current one driven slower, and/or a bypass system added.
Cheers,
Eddie B.
How about going to double groove pulleys. There is one available for the Delco 10SI etc. At the same time you could probably increase the diameter of the driving pulley and the pump pulley.

You need a much smaller pump, like 1 to 2 gpm. A by pass system will not work. The pump has to pump the full flow at the pressure needed to move the cylinder. The energy of the bypass flow is just waisted over an orifice.
You would need a wide toothed belt to transfer that kind of horsepower.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
