Hi Will,
Ahh.....now your request makes much more sense. (!)
To the best of my knowledge there is only one r/c sub vendor who sells parts for a pump-based ballast system. That would be SubTech (Skip Asay). This set of parts were designed for his Albacore kit. The t-valve part of his kit could be mated with a larger volume/capacity pump, but there would be a limit to the flow you could get out of it.
Most folks end up using some sort of auto windshield washer pump....at least in larger boats. I am fairly sure that a search of the SC messageboard would help to provide some specific examples of pumps being used.
-hope this helps!
