Thank you sir, the other will come on at 4 psi.

I'm eagerly anticipating trying this out. Still waiting on my clamps for the corrugated hoses to come in, gotta get some zip ties to hold the pumps from turning in their mounts and I still have yet to clean out this used/new tank. Then I can stuff it all in the truck.

Probably couldve done it better

Shouldve upgraded the wiring while you were in there.

The wiring to the pumps. Are those 450s? If so, they are going to draw a lot of current, and at the least you run the risk of a significant voltage drop to the pump, and worst case it melts the wires through. I would run at least 12ga to them. I did mine with dual 10ga.

The pigtail and pump wiring itself is only like 14 gauge.
