    The trick is: make a special bolt for the front of the e-shaft
    and cantilever the pump off this bolt and its own input shaft.
    No pulleys.
    No drive gears.
    No Belts.
    No mounting brackets.
    The dash 4 AN hoses keeps the pump from rotating.

    You turn the shafts out of pinion wire.

    I made a small version of this on a cheap Chinese
    mill and lathe only. NC tooling would speed the
    process. Worked great for a small oil injector.

I am coming around to this idea Paul..  A mechanical primary pump with
electric backup?
