Also, ensure that on the input side of the new pump it should be similar...valve, then union, then pump.

You need to be able to remove the pump and OM4way completely from the system for maintenance. The way you currently have it plumbed you won't be able to do that once it is full of water.

I have valve's in place so that I can kill the flow and pull out the pump's and the 4 way, the picture you where looking at was a test plumbing and nothing was glued together.

So you've changed the orientation of the plumbing since the pictures? Otherwise only one of the outputs on the 4 way is set up right. IE union between the valve and 4-way. The way it is in the picture... you'll shut the valve > open the union > watch your tank empty.
