Thanks Ed. Nice write up. I've been looking at the Glide Streams lately, now will be considering the Slip Streams as well.

Just remember that the Glide Streams represent the Old Scythe. They are sleeve bearings. They are probably good sleeve bearings -- Scythe is good at that -- but still sleeve bearings, and I would use them for cases. Now that we have ball bearing Slip Streams, you can use them anywhere, including heatsinks.
