oi rotor,

i'm getting really cheap performance boosts on your designs by just adding 2 x 2mm plexi layers. 1 serves as a collector for in-outlet barb, 1 serves as a jet.

you just figure out the +/- die area; then you drill some small holes in the plexi where the midpoint is over the midpoint of your coppergridholes.

u sandwich the plexies between the copper halves.

last weekend i modded an existing pensioned block (the best one started leaking). did that and got a whopping 4°C decrease in temps.

as a rule of thumb, you take the surface area of your barb, divide it by the nr of jets. that surface area u divide by 2 (the jet can only be a jet if it restricts). that nr gives u the surface area per jet. then u calc the diameter needed to get that surface area, and u r done.

to mod the block took me about 3hrs. this is not good if u wanna do it in large nr's, but for a personal block it is perfect. needless to say that u dont wanna do this if u r using a pelt setup.
