Watercooling on the way!!!

Alright guys... just picked up a brand new heater core from a for escort today.... $18.99 now just need a pump and water block

planning on maxi-jet 1200 and a DD maze 2

How do you like them apples

That sounds exactly like what I would build. Where did you get the heater core so cheep?

Escorts are dyin' off, so too are the replacement parts market for them. There's an even dozen in the local junkyard.

Just a thought.

Sounds like you're building a nice compact rig Scottland, I like those apples quite well....

i wish i had a nack for buildinf stuff

Thats the rig I recommend to everybody when they ask what water cooling should I go for! Well best of luck to you!

Don't say that! Especially don't say that near my car, I don't want to hurt her feelings.

Autozone!!! $18.99 for a 12x5.75x2, I got two myself. Don't look that great but works really good.

wow.... mine is only 5 7/8 x 6 1/2

i don't have much space in my computer for a large heater core...

and this one fits a 120mm case fan pretty well...

i think im gonna get one of those 190CFM deltas for the front of my case ( where the heater core is going) that should keep the heater core pretty cool

Hey ozzman, you can get compression fittings to fit the 5/8" outlet tubes. Just cut them to 1" long, clamp down the fitting, and thread in the hose fitting of your choice. You would end up with about 2 1/2" inches of fittings, but then no soldering is required.
You can also cut the tubes down and epoxy hose barbs to the stubs using Aroldite or JBWeld. Just get a large threaded fitting and it will fit right onto the tube pretty well.

Don't give up because you think you're not mechanically inclined...just do more thinking about ways to get around the 'power users' way, or a lack of tools. Roam the plumbing section of the local hardware. There's lots of different ways of doing the same thing.
