No. He will still need to duplicate either KSB circuit when he does the engine swap swap into the other vehicle. This is provided that the KSB circuit may be used on a vehicle that would ever experience a colder winter environment. Using the industrial wiring set up takes about 5 minutes to do. Also, when using the KSB circuit in a conversion a relay should be incorporated due to the KSB current draw.
Here is how the other route usually ends up. "I swapped the KSB on my pump and now the gasket where it bolts on leaks. Then I bought a reseal kit so I figured that since i had the kit I'd do a complete reseal. When I went to put the pump back together I lost the [part name]. Where can I get one quickly?" or "After doing the reseal it won't start" or "After doing the reseal it won't idle"
Then after a ton of advice that leads to more frustration; "Well i tried all of that and ended up taking it to a pump shop where i paid $700 to get the pump repaired."
So, to ME in my opinion, running a circuit that costs less than $5, swapping a KSB switch, and 10 minutes of time is a lot more efficient than gambling what usually follows. And in 7 years time of being on another "engine swap" forum I have seen the above senerio too many times.
