thanks for the offer petDMC, i've somewhat solved my barb problem, i "Bought" a 1in bard but the thread is a bit smaller, it still screws and stays in, but its loose when screwing it in, i'll use that one for the output, wrap it with tephlon, and put a seal under it and it should do well, as for the input, i will go with the original 5/8 barb and hose b/c they will hook up to the res anyway,

but with one problem solved, i've run into another, my res will be attached to the back with a barb at the bottom going through the case an into the pump. my pump is in the back of the case, if i use a barb on the res and pump, they will get in each others way and i cant connect them, b/c of the HC, the pump has to be right behind the HC that gives me maybe 2 inches with the barb on the pump to the back wall of the case
