If you just tee off your closed loop pump and have a valve on either side of the tee why do you need 4? Are you concerned about valving off inlets on either side too? If the inlets were more or less centered why not use just 2 valves?
I think a guy on RC bought a morized butterfly valve or something like that by Hayward. They're pricey but from what I read the pricey ones are extremely reliable.
Overall likely cheaper to use a pair of DC controlled pump for each side. Red Dragon is apparently releasing new pumps as the previous generation had issues. I've heard good things about similar pump but can't quite recall the maker or the name sorry.
