RE: Shogun pump alternative

Thanks for the pointer Dan!  Hell, if it's going to last I'll buy a new one
from the dealer!  The two things I'd like to know are 1 - if the pump
housing is made of plastic, and 2 - if you can tell if the impeller is
magnetically coupled.  If it has either of the two I think I'll keep looking
...
