hwo should i mount hose barbs on this heater core? i think its pretty similar to the big momma radiator. i was thinking i could use a dremel and some epox or JB weld. where can i get JB weld or any other methods of mounting. ideas? thanks.

I just slid the hose over the pipes and put a hose clamp on it. No dremeling, no soldering, no nothing.

Still awaiting my MAZE2.. so no temps, yet. The way I planned to have it arranged is as follows:

Aquarium with submerged pump to 6"x11"x2" heater core, it will remain outside the case, room temperature has always been much colder than ambient case temp anway. From heater core to waterblock and then back to the aquarium.

Sorry no pic either, digital camera is not here at the moment.

Sort of, take the pipes off the side, and mount them vertically right next to each other, then you have mine. Go/Dan Industries heater core.

Doesn't matter, in one side out the other. Works fine with my Ford F-250 heater core.
