Indeed. It is almost the exact opposite of the Cascade in fact. The Cascade has cups drilled into the base with water jets squirting into them to cool while the R-Type has pins sticking up out of the base with water flowing around them to cool. Opposite yet both effective. I was pleased to be able to be as efficent as the R-Type is with only 2 barbs and no center inlet.
