I used a Teel pump for an RV with a bypass loop (with check valve) around it.

Very educational...got to love this OSO thing. 
How about releif vavles and where to put them in the system...since I'm installing sea strainers too.

Liquid assets.... I am curious what you have found unsettling about this thread. I just read it from start to finish and find it rather productive. Please explain.

I've just about finished my first season with the KPM pumps and had no issues. Nice pump in my opinion. The plastic housing on the mercs always made me nervous.
