Thanks for the comments. A few things were brought up that I didn't consider.

Mechanical is reliable, easy and inexpensive. Electric will start that baby right up after setting for a few months, but at a cost.

Rick, thanks for the detailed comment.
I am thinking it would it be best to have an electric pump just to prime the motor and then shut it off. Is there an electric pump that when not running will allow a mechanical pump to pull gas through it ? Then second, would you do a return line by perhaps using one of the filters with two exit ports like the old Jeep 360 ci engine filters or what other return methods would you use?

Thanks !
Wayne.
