Well guys,

I decided to try out the Sedra 3500A and hope for the best. I am kinda concerned about one thing though... could this pump be "too powerful" for my setup? I can just envision hooking everything up, adding the water, turning on the pump, and a few seconds later hoses flying off the water block

I am actaully considering plumbing in a relef valve to where I can regulate the amount of pressure/volume going to my block/radiator. Maybe I can find the "sweet spot" in this setup.
Also with this new pump I am sure that I will need to replace the turbulators in my TC-4 with the springs that DodgeViper has been experimenting with.

The pump will be in tomorrow and my order of Tygon should be in next week. Till then, I hope my Rio holds out


Fat Mike: Thanks for the reasurance I didnt get a completely unknown pump. Is this model rated for 24/7 operation???
