The mech pump pulls through the electric just fine. The electric lasts forever with only intermittent use and I don't have to listen to it running all the time.

I have used this kind of combo on several different cars over the last 30 years or so with no problems.

That is exactly how I have my car set up. mechanical pump on the motor and Holley Red pump at the rear. Holley is wired to an on off switch. But I don't trust the Holley if the manual pump bladder goes out on a long trip. Maybe I am worrying over nothing.
Really Good idea about the micro switch for the electric pump trigger.
