    Thanks for the info, unfortunatly it looks like GLI doesnt support anything other than pool covers and liners anymore. Looks like I will have to fabricate something...an adapter plate of some sort or something like that.

    If I were to switch drain covers (the current covers were rated at 88ghp) will this affect the pump performance, or will I just have to adjustments to the drain flow paths?

    If you have a SS sheet metal shop in your area (restaurant supply) you can probably get them to me an SS adapter ring. Wouldn't be cheap, but it would work, and not require excavation. They should be able to do it if you take them the new drain cover, and the screw hole dimensions on the old base.

    Oh trust me, im not going to be escavating anything lol (rental house). Ill make a plastic adapter ring with two sets of mounting holes. One at the original mouting screw location and one at the new cover location.
