I've seen much worser spelling and grammar.
As for the tubing size, it's kind of hard to tell if it will be OK because I don't know what you are trying to cool and how cool you want it to be. Why do you want to use 3/8" tubing? Why not change out the barbs or whatever connectors you are using to 1/2"? And what do you mean by a "powerful" pump? Alot of flow, alot of pressure, alot of both?
