Am researching Jabsco electric head conversions and the Model 37255-Series seems to be the best of the lot while still retaining the existing bowl.
Any comments?

James, you've checked the two (or more???) electric head upgrade articles in the Technical - Upgrades section of our website, I suppose. Just want to make sure you haven't missed them.

Yes I have. It appears I have ready access to Jabsco products here in Canada, so the SeaEra conversion kit isn't an option and I'm not prepared to go to the extent of the modifications required for the Vacuflush system.
Question is, Jabsco has a few conversion products available, has anyone had good/bad experience with them?

James:
We are going to install the Jabsco 29200-0120 electric pump conversion kit on our head. I chose it because you only have to remove your existing pump assembly and bolt this one in place. If the electric unit quits, you can at least reinstall the original pump. Of course depending on when it quits, it might be a bit of a messy job:)
