good catch rainman.

i really doubt that pump is going to work at 8 foot. hopefully OP catches your post before they commit.

fwiw i recently purchased a used gast 0523 in excellent condition off of ebay for just over 200.

i think that pump would be a great choice for OP.

as far as the basement placement couldn't you create an "anti-syphon loop" at the highest point.
