Aha!.......and therein lies exactly what I have been trying to say.......Your radiators sweet spot is 2gpm.......and we all know that most if not all water blocks will perform their best at a good bit higher gpm rate.......

BTW I just bought one of those same radiators from the same guy you did tonight on Ebay.......I have not liked running the modine because its aluminum and I have a copper block. I have yet to see any adverse effects but I will feel better with copper

I wont tell ya what I won it for as it might tick you off

BTW folks there are two more of them listed for auction........
