Electric boost pump on a Fairchild PT.

'Has anyone heard of an electric boost pump being put on a fairchild PT-19/26?? Someone asked me if there was a 337 or STC for doing that. I haven't heard of anyone ever doing that. I think they want to do it in case the engine driven fuel pump quits. I guess keeping the engine running with the woble pump would get old real fast. Thanks in advance!

'Might also be thinking of an auto fuel STC as lack of a boost pump has been an issue.

'I have an AT-6 with a wobble pump, and you can guess darn well that I
put on an electric boost pump. I can't see me with three arms to do
throttle, stick and then wobble pump at the same time on final
approach.
