apologies for posting this twice .. picked teh wrong forum first time round by mistake:
I am mounting a BIX2 inside my case
I can have the barbs at teh top whch would mean slightly longer length of turbing to and from the rad but potentially less problems with trapped air (although i am easily able to remove the rad from its fixings and tilt it up and down to remove any trapped air)
Or
I can have the barbs at the bottom so that would mean shorter lengths of tubing to and from the rad but teh water will still have to climb to teh top of the rad through the narrorwer spaces of the radiator
any ideas which is best ? From a neatness of installation point of view having the barbs at the bottom would be best for me. Just wondered if there was any performance advantage or distadvatages.
cheers
