I've got everything back up and running now, there were several close calls along the way but it ended well.

I actually run a MCW6000 series block on the CPU because I don't like the Lucite tops but there wasn't much choice on the chipset block. I really like the construction of the MCW6000 except for the short single-beaded barbs.

The system runs in parallel through a distribution manifold so none of the other parts of the system got starved. The pump is an Iwaki MD20 and the other blocks in the system are a Swiftech MCW6000 and one of the huge DangerDen Geforce 6800 blocks.

I was able to rehabilitate the block with some careful sanding but decided against using it again. The ORB thread seals were pretty screwed up too and I didn't want to take the risk. I'm going to go with the original chipset fan for the time being.
