what do you think?

anything I should change?

MCW500-A
eheim 1250
6ft of clearflex
black ice pro (is this really that bad?)

I want to go with the blakc ice pro, because of space constraints, but if it really is bad then I'll go with a car heatercore.

I know I've made these before, but I always try to make sure before I spend money.

Decent enough, but you could get more out of the radiator by going with a car heatercore indeed. The black ice pro is rather mediocre IMO.

[sandman001]

How much of a difference in temps do you think I would see between the two?

[CrashOveride]

I agree with FIZZ3.

Not totaly sure about temps but it would be cheaper and almost deffinatly cooler (maybe the difference btw lower 30's and lower 40's).

[sandman001]

Well, in my situation it would be $5 cheaper to get the Black Ice, but if it impacts temps that much forget it.

NOt if your willing to paint it and make a shroud:

I was going to get it for $15 from someone I know, but I can get a heatercore for $20 with barbs installed.

[FIZZ3]

Great value then- if the difference in price is that small, there's no question the heatercore is the better choice.

Hey, you may then also look to improve upon the waterblock... with say a white water? ;)
