when you lap your block, do it on a sheet of glass, as glass tends to be pretty flat. U will kow when you have a flat bottom, when U can spray some wd 40 on the bottom of the block, and put it bottom down on the glass, and it becomes difficult to remove.
Also when applying any kind of thermo goo, put your hand in a plastic sandwich bag and use your finger tip to smear it around, Put it on the block, not the Core. U want it to be almost see thrue. Then remount.
Good luck my friend. Also make sure there is nothing in the way of the air path when air is being PULLED into your rad. And hopefully U are ducting the air some how, setting your fan/fans about 1 inch away from the rad. Ohh and make sure none of your hoses are getting kinked anywhere, and get all the air out of the system, the maze2 block is good for storing air inside. I would have your pump running, and with the block in your hand, turn it and smack the sides with your hand, to get any trapped air bubbles out. Do this for 10-30 minutes. shake it, almost be violent with it. but dont scratch the bottom.
