Can't tell you much about the G60 except I personally wouldn't run it until 
it was rebuilt and it is something that really should be rebuilt by 
professionals since the end result can be messy.  As for the 16V lines, you 
don't need them.  You can run your 8V lines and pump.  I have the '81's 
pump and lines in mine feeding the 16V.
