Bloke, as Ned stated above, foles and Gryphon Brewing may have found a another option as noted here. perhaps a PM is in order ;-)

Edit : Grammar for clarity....

Yes I have found an alternative but as mentioned it is a fare way off being landed in quantity, I only had one to trial, so for now the march would be my choice.I will let every one know when I get ETA.

62 Ltrs per minute and 4.8m head


was $165

so far its great i have had no problems with it (apart from the hose fittings on the pump not being threaded)

Nice pump, but still only good to 80, and no mention of food grade, though the materials list indicates it should be fine for food up to its operating temps. Probably okay for pre-boil transfer though, which should be sufficient if you layout your plumbing so you can gravity feed to cube or chill in kettle.
