I would go electric pump, less to go wrong, no belt. And cleaner install.

The belt drive on a stock pump will get you around 5-10 GPM. Even the cheap electric pump will flow more like 20-35 GPM. But at 200hp the belt drive will likely work fine. The higher flowing pump would help you cool down between rounds faster.

Easy for me to spend your money but I would go with the Meziere pump.

If you have one of the 12v motor belt driven pump set ups and want a better motor that will turn a couple hundred rpm more my company sells these that we use in our centrifuges. They are way better than the smaller 12v motors used in the kit. We do have those also but they would cost more from us I would expect. Here is the better one we sell.
