I have read the different comments of members that don't like the V-8 bracing in the '70's Ovation's very much, citing poor tone and top cracking.
Are these observations about V-8 braced guitars in particular, or does this include the entire "V" lineup in general?

Just my opinion, but I think the rule of thumb is that all V bracing sucks and the higher the number, the worse it is.

A pretty accurate summary I'd say.

Does that qualify me to run the pumps?

You can run the pumps till the first pond is full, then your sister has to have a turn.
