hey Jay, I love bouncing ideas off of people who enjoy trying new things.
What if we cam up with an aluminum base for a block, but have a 1.5 inch circle cut out where the contact would be made, then have a screw in copper incert. If the threads were done right they wouldnt leak, and have really good aluminum to copper contact that way. Then inside the block, have screw in type of incert poles that could be customized to different configurations. Say just for example, an open pocketed block, with small holes (not drilled all the way thrue the bottom) with threads in them, then take copper or aluminum dowles that were threaded to screw in the holes. U could use as many, or as few as you would want, to get the best concact area and flow rate.
Just something I thought up a while ago.
I like the idea of copper and aluminum mix blocks, its easyer on the cutters and the cost. I mean why have all this expensive copper in a block, when it isnt doing jack. Have the hottest parts copper, and as you work your way outward away from the heatsource, aluminum would work just as good.
Also, I sent in a copper Spir@l and an aluminum Spir@l, I am very excited to see if the copper is in fact any better in this design.
