That is there latest.

Has any one tried adding a center inlet to the TC-4 rev2, allowing the 2 ends to be outlets ?

if you wanted to try it, you'd need the (more expensive) poly topped tc-4 i think ... as otherwise drilling a hole for the centre barb would be likely to damage the anodising on the aluminium.......

I don't know the size of the TC4 but if it is not any bigger than the WW I would not want to be drilling extra holes in the Poly-top. The WW already has problems cracking between the barbs. Lessening the space between would just make the problem worse, wouldn't it?

I ordered the Aluminum top for my 2 processors.I will look at them and if it looks possible my friend at a local machine shop will do the mod for me.

That'd be an interesting mod. Not sure how much good it would do you, but it would certainly make the block less restrictive. I'm interested in the results.

I modded a D-Tek block many moons ago to a three barb top and used a jet sprayer I made to force water onto the center channel that I drilled 15 dimples over the die.

Camparing the changes I made to a stock TC-4, the temps if I remember correctly dropped 2C. The sprayer nozzle worked much like other blocks using the the center barb to direct water over the die.

If you already own the block you can improve its performance, but if you are looking at buying this block to make changes then your better off buying the WW block from D-tek.
