I was making my WC sinse april, but i may i had my matura exam, later exams for studies and finnaly my water cooling is on :)
My WC kit includes:
-BlackBox WaterBlock (50*50*20mm, with "M" shapet channels) (photo of beta wersion :) )

-AquaEL water pump 600 l/h
-Ford Fiesta ALU radiator
-2.4l reservoir

I'm wating for suggestions.

Making your own water blocks, is something I have always had alot of respect for. However your installation leaves much to be desired. I would either figure out how to fit it all in your case, or fit all the external parts into it's own enclosure.

By the way, do you have any fans on your heat exchanger? Is it all passive?

If you need any ideas on specific parts of your rig, please post them.

EDIT: Oh yeah, welcome to the forums....

photos were taken just after putting it all together, a all was standing to be good visible on photos.
My case is to small to hold all WC inside but it's in my plans to make it easy to move.

Thanks :)

no more comments??

i buy fan for my heat exenger. i'ts 172mm papst fan, model 6248-008 or 6248/3T, air output is almost 400m^3/h. it's powered by 48V but it's running also at 12V and it' noiseless. when i'll heve it ome i'll post results

what car did you get that rad from mine looks nearly the exact same as yours.
Mine wouldn't fit into my case tho i have to extend me case.

I don't know what car exact it is from but mine is also to big to fit in case. I've ordered now Lada rad looking same as Morphling's rad.
