Whers is this solution?
To try to eliminate the air bubble, etc, I would make my pump the highest point in the system, and then I kind of "trap" the air bubble in a kink and move this kink through out the entire system... the only problem I have with this is pushing the air through my water jacket and radiator.. not the easiest thing to do since the waterjecket is securley mounted on my motherboard/CPU and the radiator isn't tube like.. it's a heater core. But, after doing this 2 or 3 times I can manage to get most of the ait out. However, with my 60gph pump and all that resistance, I still get slightly more than a trickle... so, I think an upgrade in pumps may be in order.

Also, I used "Hi Temp Heater Hose" from autozone for my tubing. It's really nice and thick rubber that compresses really well with hose clamps, so no leaks... and it doesn't deform with heat (as with a few large peltiers would create). It's a little more expensive, but worth the peice of mind I think.
