    before we all get too hung up on the word concealed .. where is the actual restrictor? My initial read was that it was the brass in the middle of the pump's output line, but that may have been influenced by the wording

    As long as I can stick a 1/8" rod into it without adjusting any SS parts, I think it's legal. Just having SS protecting it isn't an issue in my book. Might even be good practice :)

    See the black fittings at the deck rim that is the restrictor.
    Concealed meaning you can access it through the SS. The brass tubing between was an after thought to remove the pump for service as removing the hose from the restrictor is a chore

    When I looked at the picture, I ASSUMED that the restrictor was in the brass splice, not in the outlet.

    What's the reason for the second set of motors not being wired up?
