Excellent to hear Miladiou.
I think the heater core/fans can probably handle the heat considering how little that pump actually adds to a standard system.
The shipping really shouldnt be that bad considering the main things that people need to order shipped (for most) would be the waterblock and tubing/fittings (I would suggest McMaster.com here, they have all the needed fittings, tubing, and clamps at some pretty nice prices and are very reasonable on shipping cost). The fittings/tubing could also be picked up at a local hardware store. The res is little more than a standard acryclic food container available at many stores locally. I suggest spending the extra buck or two and getting one of the thicker walled (1/8") ones.
The fillport would simply be a barbed one end/male threaded other end fitting secured in place with a washer/RTV sealant and a thin nut. A simple screw on cap could be used when not filling/bleeding.
The bulkheads would be 3/4" female thread-3/4" male thread secured by sticking the male thread through a drilled hole with a barbed/threaded fitting screwed onto each side. Total cost per bulkhead is right about $2 including washers/sealant.
The shroud cost would run anywhere from $1-$5 depending on material used and tools available. It could go from re-enforced cardboard up to 1/4" Acrylic/Plexiglass to 26guage steel. Pretty cheap to make and very easy. Material type depends largely on available tools.
