Thanks bigben!

The reason why I put the res and rad together, they are made with German fittings, which could be converted to a maximum of 10mm barbed fitting, is it a good idea to use a reducer from 1/2"ID reducing it to 10mm? I mean am I loosing a lot of flow here?
The blocks can handle anything from 3/8"OD to 1/2"ID, in fact I already have the fittings for 3/8"OD or 1/2"ID. But only the blocks, the rad and the res can go up to 10mm maximum.

So I assume if Im to use all of them 10mm tubes, except the one from the block to the pump intlet, which will be a 1/2"ID, isnt this the best setup for my case? But then another problem raised, the outlet of the pump will have to reduced to 10mm! I dont even know where I could find that kind of "big change" fitting.

Well I admit that its bcos of the look of the reservoir, I really dont wanna drop it, and also the rad, its a 3x120mm i wanna buy, also 10mm barbed.

I really have to make a decision now, cos I have pretty much everything sitting right here ,only waiting for the watersetup now.
