hey guys, i know i'm going to get flamed for this but i have a Koolance kit, 2 actually. i got them for a VERY cheap price but now i'm thinking about just modifying the kit to be a 3/8" kit. i like the radiators b/c they're not quite as thick as other rads but the down side is that they're aluminum. well i was wondering if it's worth it to try to modify the Radiators to use 3/8" barbs instead of the 1/4" (6mm). would it be better than my Swift Micro rad? i will be using this w/ a copper block. any input appreciated. thanks!
