So here's some of the equipment i was looking at.
15 Gallon Mash Tun
Looked at the Blichmann ($494) vs. the Spike ($395) for the 15 gallon ported kettle with all appropriate fittings and false bottoms. Looks like Spike is the way to go.
In regards to pumps, are you able to adjust your flow? What am i looking for? I'll be using the pump for recirculating and for sparging.

Converted rectangular cooler is hard to beat as far as large mash tuns goes.

I have a Spike kettle that they custom built for me last year. They were very helpful and the quality of the kettle is fantastic.

Put a ball valve on the discharge of the pump. You can control wort flow with it. Since March pumps are magnetically driven, you can ramp down the flow without worrying about doing any damage to the pump. IMO, the only trick with March pumps is that they have to be primed, so you will need to take that into account.
