c-systems mag pumps make 0 noise. your hard drives and fans will make more noise than the pumps will ever, i am runnins 2 of them and have to touch them to check if there on or not .
the bulkheads are for 3/8" ID 1/2" OD so they won't work if your usin 7/16"
Some one may make 7/16 compression fitting bulkheads out there (or you can make your own if your handy and have a lathe .. and about 30 minutes to make each one )
I like option 2 , as you can run a second pump right next to it if need be(for a second loop
I used the mag pumps, here is what i did with them
2 pumps above the PSU and a 2x80mm radiator to cool the hard drives.
I have all the lines using blukheads going through the case.
if no one knows, this link may help you.
once you find the size, buy a nut in the same size to verify. if you call them again just ask them if its metric or inch, that should help some what

i do have a knurling tool, but i have never used it :confused: so i don't know how it would come out ( i got it to try and put knurling on Titanium parts i made and it would not come out right. but in Alu it should be MUCH easyer )
If koolance won't give you the info, sure. just let me know...
If you still need those parts turned let me know as i have alot of free time coming my way (inbetween coats of varnish on my kayak i can turn the parts for you)
let me know the thread size, opening size, over all length, thickness of the mating shoulder and inside angle on the part.
Or...
you can fit a 120.2 , 2x 120.1 and 1x 80.2 into a 2000v (or modify things and run a 120.2 , remove the 80.2.
There is more than enough cooling in the case, you can use ultra quiet fans ( i have 11 db and 14 db fans) the push some where around 45CFM each
If you plan it out right you can...
You probly want to think about moving to a larger case like the v2000s or something in the full tower size.

just tell us how much you want to spend, you could get by for under $200 or as much as $600+ depending on how you want it set up, if your buyin a case, etc
i was going to build a 4"dia 4" tall res from solid coper barstock, but was shocked at the price of just the bar stock ($120 for a 4" section) + i hate turning anything softer than 7075 on my mathe, its just makes a mess thats a PITA to clean. rather turn Ti than Cu
my best deal when was i bought my lathe, it has a cushman chuck (over 3K new) and the platform its on is made from 1/2" plate + all the tooling with it and a extra chuck for $300
you cant even buy a china import used for $300 let alone a USA made southbend
only bad thing is i am replacing...
how much flow are you going to have on the system, you may run into issue with 1/2" with alot of flow in a small res like this. i did using the AC res and had to use a split return so it was not like a vortex inside...
