I have 3 myers horizontal PB series booster pumps. Got them new and cheap about 15 years ago. Ran dry and cooked the impellers in one. Managed to get the pump head shell off- what fun. The Meyers PDF manual on the PB series does not match mine. There is no hex end cap on the pump body - you must unscrew the SS shell from the cast head. PITA. Can't get the impeller stack loose from the pump body. Any tricks there? How about a 1 HP jet pump instead? 2+ psi on the inlet and I need @ 20gpm at 40 psi. I could cannabalize the other pumps for parts, but I don't know that the frustration is worth it.
