I decided to do some tests with this combination this is what I found:
1)Not hooked up to the waterblock and with 1' of 3/4" tubing I got 787 gph
2)Hooked up to mcw462-uh with 1/2" barbs:
With 10' (5' in and 5' out) 1/2" tubing and a 1/2" adapter for the pump I got between 285 and 300 gph
3)Hooked up to the mcw462-uh without barbs:
using 4' of 5/8" tubing (4' in none out) I got about 500-550 gph
4)Hooked up to the mcw462-uh without barbs:
using 4' of 1/2" tubing (4' in none out) I got about 450-500 gph
the without barbs test I took out the barbs and shoved some 5/8" tubing in the hole and then used that for the 5/8" test and for the 1/2" test I used a small section (about 1") of 5/8" tubing to shove into the block and shoved the 1/2" tubing inside the 5/8" tubing.
for head figures going by the flow rates given with the pump this equates to for each test:
1) 87 gph better than zero somehow
2) 8'
3) 2.5'
4) 4'
Anyhow I figured this might be useful for other people.
