Okay, everyone seems to be ignoring me a little at a time, because i'm so hesitant about every decision i make.

Anyways, i had...a weak moment yesterday....and that puts my status at a little different part than it was not long ago.

D tek TC-4 rev2 -- SHIPPING (black-label, possible fake)

'77 or '87 bonneville heatercore -- HERE

Clearflex tubing from McMaster 5231K237 --ORDERED

home depot stuff (clamps, barbs, ect) (...oops, i forgot..i'll get those soon :p)

maxijet 1200 pump -- ORDERED

so thats pretty much it for a basic setup. i was hoping to get a cheap WB for my GPU, but its not looking good price wise. i'll just have to put a huge GPU HS on soon, and a 7V 80mm on it.

So, the basig first loop of Como begins...hopefully this will quiet the roar a bit.

i got my pump today. its SMALL!

teh intake appears to be 1/2" ID, but the exaust is 1/2" OD...i'll have to really be careful about leaks with that one, i cant tighten a thing too much because of its a cheap plastic pump. Its submersable, but doesnt need to be submersed.

I hooked it up in a sink today, with all 10' of hose leading to my rad, and it seemed to have a good amount of flow....and it isnt loud at all, but vibrates a bit. (easily fixed with some padding)

now all i need is my fake tc-4...la la la!
