If you're going for 5052 and AN fittings it might be worth talking to the
factory when ordering your engine and fittings to see if they can do pumps
with appropriate fittings.

You don't need a Facet with a 914. Connecting to the automotive style 
rotary pumps might be possible by crimping on Teflon lined hose with 
crimped on AN fittings at the other end. Bit OTT though. I have no better 
ideas yet. Brain hurts!
