Hey Bill,
I think you need to spec the model that is in there more that the HP. When
you say 3 wire is the controller above ground like a Franklin with the
capacitors and reduced surge? I do not know the Outback models by memory,
it is 240 right? That depth does not sound too expensive to replace the
pump with a soft start like Grundfos. Good Luck!
