NC KS
2" intake, 1.5" discharge. I adapted intake down to pump and adapted output back to 3". I have run 45-60 gpm through and out to spray nozzles without any problem. The John Blue truck pump struggled to get above 60 psi while spraying. The Ace can run 80+ with booms on.

My current tips and spacing are a limit to gpa. I run the light green teejet fertilizer nozzles on 30" spacing so have to stay under 8-9 mph to get on 30-35 gpa.
This is on a 90 foot boom.

If you want to run 50 gpa at 15 mph (136 gpm) through a 90 foot boom better study the Ace pump output chart to be sure but I think it could do it. Looks like it puts out 160+ gpm at 40 psi.
