In my setup I had a snorkel style airtrap inbetween the pump and the collapsed section of tube. The vinyl is too soft, methinks, if you use a strong pump. I would suspect that any stretch of vinyl tubing after the midpoint of your coolant loop, resistance-wise, can be affected by this.
Ghetto masters *snicker* ... you should see it now. I installed what I am calling "the Football" on the back of my computer. It is a 1.5 ft length of 4" black PVC with a screw cap (complete with square bolt) on top and a T on the bottom that adapts my 1/2" braided hose to a 1" connector that attaches to the 4" PVC. I can stick the best part of a gallon of cooling in this bastard. To fill my system I just dumped fluid in, turned on the pump, and waited overnight for all the bubbles to work out. To prevent torque damage to my processor from tension from the braided hose, I have 2" sections of the vinyl (grr) going from the braided to the block. It is now completely ghetto ... and so is my living room since I dumped most of a can of PVC glue (neon blue) on my f*cking carpet. Nothing known to man can ever get that crap up.
