Base your fuse size on the ga wire you are using. If the motor in the pump begins to seize and continues to draw current the insulation on the wire will likely be the first thing to burn.
You will want to make sure your switch is rated for the amperage that the pumps will require to run properly.
I'd need to know what pumps you are using and basically everything else you have going on as far as fuel system wiring to give you a truly accurate figure on current draw and what you can handle. You can use the information I have just given you and search the internet for your answer from here.
good luck.
