Here are some pictures of my pump setup that I bought along with a few mods done to it. I bought a 12 volt setup from Redline. I added the piping. I have a straight run and a filtered run. I am still thinking of adding more filters to the filter side though. I am planning on extending the power cable along with having a cable with the switch attached. The current configuration is a 2 person operation and I would like to get it to where I could go it alone if I have to. I am also going to replace the fuse set up with a breaker. Any questions or comments are welcomed.

You will end up with a few more filters. That is a really strong pump, you may consider putting your three filters on the intake side, that way you can't collapse them from pushing too much through a clogged filter.

Keep us posted.

First part is done. These pictures are from a couple months ago before I really started using it. Now it has oil on it
Thanks for the suggestion about adding some more filters. I plan on toying around with a few different filter setups to see what works best.

PVC pipes are not really an issue if you add in a relief valve that will dump back into the pumped tank. But the cost of PVC really doesn't save you much over iron/brass fitting. Fit the relief valve after the motor and before the first filter.
Gauges!!!! Before the first and after the last filter.
One thing that I will be looking into are quick disconnect fittings on the hoses I use. Threads can leak and get stripped... some cheap 1/2in QD's should make getting things together and apart a snap.
I use the PVC pipe to go into whatever I am sucking out of. It is 1/2". I have a screen on the end for the big stuff.
At the moment I am using hose fittings and I have caps for all the ends. I do plan on adding some gauges along with some other things. I wanted to try it out and see how it went and then evaluate from there. So far it has been great. Just needs a few modifications here and there.

Paulfarber, Do you have an example of the relief valve you would use?
Thanks!!
