Hi Ernest,

Yes, the WP136 is what I'm using.  We can probably get pretty close as
I earleir meaured the maximum head pressure to be 6 psi, and maximum
flow of 16 GPM.  These measurements were with 40 F tap water, so some
adjustments would have to be made.  I'm not claiming a high accuracy on
these measurements anyway. :)  The lower flow rates are probably only
good to +/- 1/2 GPM at best.
