You need to know

how much water you have to move, and what resistance ("head") the pump has to work against. Then you can pick your pump by looking at performance charts for different pumps.

If you're working on a gravity conversion, it gets a bit more complicated. Paste this link into your browser and follow it to a real good ;-) article on the subject. It pays to wander off the Wall!
