i've done quite a bit of reading on the subject. there just isn't any wealth of up to date information on the different temperatures at the different stages of the loop, therefore i have no idea what temperatures to expect the water entering the heater core to be at. plus there are many variables and setups that can deterime temps and the few things i have read, didn't even begin to scratch the surface about what i would like to know about it. that's why i turned to the forums. i read in some place that 70cfm was the minimum needed on cores and radiators, the author never mentioned the type of setup so i could only take it with a grain of salt.

i may not be the definitive source on pelts, but i will have to disagree with your statement on a core and any fans being unable to cool that system. you have to take into account ambient air, loop setup and the type of core being used.

although i appreciate input, your assuming i have no idea what is involved with implementing T.E.C. i have read just about every article reputable sites such as procooling.com has on the subject along with countless posts, and taking the time to look at galleries along with reading what components they have, the type of loops they have and the result they get from it. people who post about subject matters that are covered in depth all over forums and articles, such as picking the right power supply, are the ones that need to do their homework.
