Take a look at the super split splitter. It is a flywheel-driven
mechanical rack-and-pinion splitter that really works. It comes with a
3hp briggs engine that is more than enough. I considered putting my
spare elec-trak snowblower motor on it, but haven't yet. It would work
just fine. See http://www2.shore.net/~logsplit/

IMHO, I'd go with the hydraulic conversion, never have seen a
mechanical motor driven splitter thatcould handle more than "easy"
wood. Just hard to get enough mechanical advantage because of energy
loss thru the gears.
