Two more strange details that I should mention:
(Yes I do beleive that these deserve a new posting)
1) Once I put in the new custom radiator from DTEK, I started getting greenish film covering everything in my water loop. I was using purified water at the time. Fearing for the life of my cooling loop, I added WW and now it has subsided. My system is all copper/brass/plastic/tygon. Where the hell could I be getting this corosion?!?!?
2) The whole setup was done so that I could use a 1/2" return side and a 3/8" pressure side of the system (AKA 1/2" from res. to pump & 3/8" from pump -> blocks -> res.) Now I am almost all 1/2" and it is still noisier than hell.
I am desperate to quiet this thing down but I dont have a huge budget. NEEED IDEAS!!!!! PLEASE!!
