I see potential problem with that motor controller.
I've been running 55gpm Meziere pumps on all sorts of applications for years. One of my cars has one for engine coolant and two for the air to water intercooler system. The ones that I have worked with have thousands of hours of use on them, lots of people use them on their daily drivers. I have yet to have one fail.

I've also been using the Davies Craig electronic pump controllers for as few years on multiple applications. Zero failures there either.

They are not inexpensive though.

I just started using Davies Craig EWP150 water pumps. Those are a bit more budget friendly. I don't have thousands of hours on them, but before I started using them I looked around. They seem to be pretty much bulletproof.
