John, not sure if you can still find a good one but I have been using a 
Cockshutt 40 on my six foot Mckee blower for many years and it works well. 
There are times when I'd like the reverse to be just a bit slower but only 
in real heavy deep snow. Once you make the first pass through you can take a 
half width or whatever keeps the blower running full.
For slow reverse I think my MF Super 90 has got to be one of the slowest 
ever. Great for backing implements into the shed but if you've got far to go 
it seems like your hardly moving. Unfortunately it has no 3 point hitch for 
a snowblower .
