As I said. If people want 3/8", or even 1/4" fittings attached, I'll do it for them by request. As the testing shows, the block would still perform well with such meagre fitting sizes, but for these fitting sizes it'd be near pointless to use a pump any stronger than an Eheim 1046, as the dominant source of pressure resistance acting against the pump is the fittings themselves, and even the hosing.
Personally, for small tubing sizes I'd only consider 3/8" tubing with an Eheim 1048 with 3/8" fittings and some push-fit hose fittings where the fitting inner diameter orifice size is the same as the hosing. To go smaller than that kinda defeats the purpose of "optimising" your water-cooling performance.
