I've used four of 'em so far (mated with 1046s). No problems.
Replace the inlet compression fitting. The reservoir's threaded for 1/4" BSPT - and you can 1/4"BSPT to 1/2" tubing adapters at McMaster for about $5 for a bag of 10 (made by Eldon James Corp - probably available elsewhere).

If nothing else, these make systems ridiculously easy to bleed - just pour coolant in. The pump inlet is under a couple of inches of water, so no inlet restriction.
