Not sure what has you all fired all of a sudden and I don't remember asking you for a block (gone fishin). I am atemting to show two different things here.

First there is a difference in the equipment that billa has and home users have. Agreed? If this is so they will never get the results that bill does. The first part of my testing is to show more or less with the same equipment that home users have what kind of results they are likely to see. The margin for error is not entirely but partially an issue as it will be a real world analysis. As a result there will be more of a tempature variation in block design because the pumps billa uses are far beyond any pump you will see used in a computer water cooling. The expense is enough to go refridgerated.

Second I will build the setup like bill has I've already started with some of the parts but don't have them all yet. The results gathered from this will be of more use to those that design blocks. Why because it will be able to show weeknesses in thier design. However as noted above no home user will be able to produce these results because they will not be using a pump that flows 11.4gpm with a 66 foot head. By the way that is the actual flow of a real pump. Bill is using something simmilar but I don't think he is using that exact one.

For me me reasons are strictly informational. I want to know. I never liked hype. I have to know. As a result the testing will have to be done so that I know. My intention is not to lead anyone astray and also I see the need for both types of testing.

Note: fixed an error with the gpm of the pump it now reads correctly.
