Hi! Well, I've been lurking for a while but now I decided to create an account and become active so, Hi!
I assembled my first custom loop around two months ago based on an EK Liquid360, and it did not go well, found out that I had a bad oring on the pump which apparently was causing it to have a really weak flow, so I disassembled and found a crack in a fitting thread on the pump top, also, in the month it took the leak to apparently kill the pump, I was using mayhems pastel orange which created gunk in my block, so I had to deal with that also.
To not make this story longer, since I'm not in the us, it's really difficult to ask for an RMA, so I'm looking to buy a new pump. I have the reservoir top and cylinder from this kit (I upgraded to a 140mm one and a multiport top which goes perfectly with my planned loop), so my question is this.
Do all ddc pumps have the same specs in spacing and screws and mounting? Can I buy an Alphacool Alphacool Laing DDC310, and a EK XRES 100 for a DDC pump to replace the one with the cracked threading (which causes leaks too) so I can use my current reservoir cylinder and reservoir top?

So, here are some pics of this sad story and thank you in advance!
So.. This was the first day.
After this, it all went down hill
