USA gallons or UK gallons?
1 UK gallon is 4.5 ish litres =  8 uk gallons     36lpm (litres per minute)
1 USA gallon is 3.8 ish litres =8 usa gallons    30lpm
 I am assuming you are comparing specifications on machines. American models seem more"powerful" until upon inspection you realise that the yanks measure things differently.

If you asked the question because you are mixing cleaning chemicals i suggest you change occupation... apologies if this is not the case   ;D

That looks like a Kohler command engine - I've got 2 engines / pumps sat on the floor in the unit if you want to build the rest
