MCP655 Pump question

[ATLPIMP]

Getting ready to piece together wc kit, and have a question that will affect my pump choice. Can the pump be mounted like this?

 

[dnottis]

no, intake must be horizontal.

 

[MrE]

I've seen people argue this about orientation, but the manufacturer recommends for optimal performance to NOT mount it in this fashion. Pretty sure it has something to do with adequate lubing of the motor bearing.

The pump can be mounted in any direction except with the motor above the inlets as per instructions from Laing and Swiftech.
