No, they are not in series. Each one runs independent of each other. The Hob's switch just shut off the electric pump when the pressure get to about 12 psi.

Yes, they are available. You will have to got to TDR or the NWBombers and look for Opie.
He is not a vendor here and I would get in trouble for posting any more info.
Sorry.

Why don't you do the cam and mechanical pump like a 12 valve. I believe Don M. is selling them ... do a search for the Helix cam. By the time you do the RASP style, you'd be in it for about the same as the cam and pump.

When I was looking for a replacement lift pump I asked BD Diesel about their unit. Sounded good to me and then I asked what happens if the stock lift pump siezes up. They said the vanes of the stock pump could block the fuel flow if it failed. So I looked at the RASP pump and liked what I saw at first till I started adding up all the extra fittings,belt and filters I wanted. Looked like too many connections and parts. Remember this was two years ago, so give me some slack on technology change. I'm not knocking mechanical fuel pumps at all, don't get me wrong here! I work with engines/machinery/tools for a living so I know the value and differences of mechanical and electrical pumps. My point is I have a rule that says K.I.S.S. (KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID) and was driven into me as a apprentice. At the time FASS was a proven system (Piers Diesel recommended it) that included filtration that nobody else had. So time has gone by and my electric replacement pump is doing its job supplying clean fuel at the proper pressure and volume all by itself keeping the cp3 and injectors problem free! The original excellent running stock pump gathers dust in the garage. That's my opinion, so everybody has one, like you know what
