Bernico make one, but you could easily make your own dude from 2 singles just tie them together

I'm sure Tony Davis could supply you some from Imco, I also had some made for a friends 3.0L motors earlier on this year, they were the 3 piece type for domestic mids.

What if the pumps shift fluid at slightly differing rates? there'll be a fight between two very powerful warriors.
If it were me, I'd leave em mechanically independent, fire them both together with one switch via relays, and a second switch that fires one on it's own for tweaking them into sync if needed (mechanical indicators needed on each lifter).
However, I'd probably be over complicating it, coz I do that sometimes.

Our B-28 has two single jack plates with an ali plate sandwiched between them and the motors. Both are run from one pump which works fine but is slow. My intention however, is to add a second pump run in parallel to speed things up, and by having them in parallel will overcome the different speed thing Jon mentioned.
