I can't give you drawings or pictures, but I can suggest another course of action. Get 1/8" brass plate (or thicker) that's about 3" square. Drill in appropriate mounting holes to match up to the 4 main holes in a 6800 card, drill two main holes over the inlet/outlet areas, then solder in two 1/2" ID copper 90 degree elbows. You now have a 6800 gpu block that flows even better now.

HiProfile, im not quite sure what your trying to make there? a brass top to replace the aluminum top of the Maze4 GPU?
Heres some picutres of my modified Maze4 GPU to fit on a 6800 GT. all you have to do is drill an extra hole next to one of the nvidias mounting hoels on the GPU block.

I should have had the waterblock next week, RoD sold it to me for $30 including shipping, but so farit is missing in action. I'm giving him the benifit of doubt, since he hasn't posted since his last PM to me. I think even for free shipping, it should arive within 7-10 days after he said he shipped, despite the fact that he waited a whole week after recieving payment to put it in the mail...
Anyways, I was planning on ditching the lucite top (it was a cpu block) and fabbing a brass top with copper elbows sticking out, since the outlets on both the cpu and gpu block would not make tube routing easy for me. I'll probably just buy a new block for $40 and get some tygon and sell the block that I purchased from RoD...assuming he's actually sent it. I waited an entire week longer than planned for parts I needed for 3 projects, and so far 1 hasn't arrived and one was DOA.
I'm avoiding the silver prop mainly because of price and the way the fittings are. You'll understand if I ever finish this darned case - the MCP650 pump is in the rear, the rad on the bottom in front of the pump, and there's not much room for shifting changing their places.
