Which radeon 8500 do you have? Who made it? You can write to DangerDen about it.
I've had problems with non-standard video cards also. Both my Nvidia cards have non-standard mounting holes. The Swiftech adapter for the MCW50 that is used for the 5900fx cards fits my 4200-8x and 5200.
As for the res, test it first, as with all your other water stuff before using it. That'll tell you if the fittings are installed correctly or not.
I don't know of any waterblocks (not custom made) thin enough to save the pci slot.
