Default K-Plane Pump(s)

I am adding a set of K Planes on a boat that did not have them before. I have been getting conflicting answers on whether I need one pump (don't really believe, but like the answer), or two pumps (believe it, but don't like the answer as well). I have been told that a "dual action" pump will power both 280 K Planes. Any thoughts are really appreciated!

If you use the Keikhafer (sp) pumps you need 2. Bennett tabs use a single pump, but that is not really a good unit to use with a K Plane.
