Default 450 Blower issues

I purchased a 450 snowblower for my 1811. Sorry that it's hard to read the Lot/model number & MFG date in the photo, it reads as follows: 190-450-100H298D. I removed all of the SGT mounting hardware, moved the brackets to the correct holes, and drilled the lifting straps so that everything mounted to my 1811. Took it for a test drive in the yard and it would only blow 5" of light snow about 6 feet at full throttle. The augers look like they're moving pretty slow as well. I knew it came off of a 1782. After contacting the PO, what I didn't know about the 1782 was that it has a larger 6" PTO. My 1811 has a 4.5" PTO (outside dia.). The pulley on the 450 snowblower is about 7 1/8 outside dia.

Not sure if I did this correctly or not... To get one full rotation of the blower fan, I have to turn the gear box pulley a little over 2.5 rotations. Sam Mac just posted in a different thread that the 450 gearbox is 1.86:1 and the 451 gear box is 2.58:1. Did Cub Cadet make a 450 with a different gear box for later model cubs? Is the 450 meant to attach to a 1782? Or did the PO swap the gear box with one from a 451? Is the pulley on the gear box of a 450 just over 7", or did the PO swap that out?

Is there anyway to fix this without spending a bunch of money for a new PTO that I'll have to swap out when I put the 44C mower deck back on? ...Guessing a smaller pulley on the snowblower???

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
