Mag Drives are great, they last forever. Just make sure you account for that head height.

If I'm remembering this correctly, you can loose about 100 to 150 GPH for each 1' of height (unless stated otherwise by the manufacture).

And you also lose head with every elbow or any other angle.

You lose flow/pressure, not head. Head is the height reducing that flow.
How much you lose per foot of height changes according to pump design. Some preserve flow better than others.

Oh yes. I must have had a moment there. Fishguy is Right.
