Both PapaIndigo and WWDiesel are correct from their own perspective.
Everyone's choices are their own to make.
Their prioritized considerations involved in those choices are theirs alone.
Regardless of where each one of us has chosen to land on this issue, I think we've given lesconley and Screaminjeapin a fairly complete list of our personal opinions, so whatever thing they choose at this time, That's theirs.
It may not be the path I personally chose, but now my interest shifts to helping them make the best of their choice. Or in the words of Steve Dulcich, "to take the least bad way through a potentially bad situation."
I believe most people's approach (at least those who fall under the CRD's sweet siren song) is to address whatever problem with the best solution that they can afford when they are pressed to take action. This is where differences happen based on current issues, and current resources and priorities.
My observation of WWDiesel's approach is basically the pinnacle of preventive perfection. When something fails (torque converter, for one example) the only answer is the SunCoast TC.
PapaIndigo I know less well, but observe in his list of mods, that he basically takes the same path. In this case it seems you both want these guys to be aware of ALL options (+&-)so they can make their own informed choices.
{EDIT}
Hopefully in near future, There may be some light shed on how the CP3 OFV deals with purging air-in-fuel. I suspect the amount that it can deal with when only the prime pump is pulling fuel, vs when there is a lift pump applying advance pressure, is more than we collectively suspect.
Courtesy of Thermorex, I have a NON-OP CP3 that he sent me to dissect.
Even if it's not functional, we can go through it and run a couple of camera batteries dead finding out why.
