thats always the challenge, Maserati performance at VW pricing. What stuck me as most interesting about joe's block design is a plastic top with a minimal insert in the bottom some kind of copper or carbon foam or whatever. But it looks like it would cost under $5 to make.
For water cooling to become mainstream take your best design and figure out how to make it for $2.00 and you have a winner.
use stainless steel or copper flexhose and make a cheap small copper radiator ala" XP90. white box it and you are on your way to the bank,
Joe's design/cost model looks like a good one
