just the answers I needed! thanks!

HEY SPLASH....
ONE MORE THING....
WHEN INSTALLING THE FITTING ON THE THREADED END, MAKE
SURE YOU USE TEFLON TAPE AND MAKE SURE THAT IT
IS LINED UP PERFECTLY FROM THE BEGINNING BEFORE YOU
START SCREWING IT ON BECAUSE THE THREADS ARE NOT THE
STRONGEST AND WILL STRIP...

great thanks! I found a mag 24 for 120 bucks online... I will swaping out my iwaki pump for the Mag... Thanks for your help.

Also, use a pvc union joint at the pump on the out side. Makes for easy removal.
