So far i have a 77' Boneville heater core for my rad, and I will be purchasing a TDX block in the comming days. I am also looking down the road for when i get my next computer which will be a mobo with sli capabilities, so i might have 2 more blocks if anyone will make some that will fit in a sli setup.

I am just curious as to what pump you guys would recomend. I was thinking maybe an eheim 1250 if i was to go with a 120v pump or the other day i saw these neat looking CSP 750 pumps and you could get them in series and they made like a 147" water column.

I am open to anything though but was leaning towards that dual pump configeration because of the presure it could make. Any feedback would be sweet.
 
I would stay away from the CSP750s (many reported problems so far) and get either the AQX 50Z or the Laing DDC/MCP350 (has over 13' of head)
 
what about a D4 pump, that seems to put out more head presure over a greater flow range than then both those. The DDC seems to have 0 head at a flow rate of about 5.75 lpm from the graph i saw on the swiftech site. I really don't kow though how much flow i will nead for what i want to do. :(

The problems with the CSP750's, especially when running in series, were supposedly fixed when the pump was revised back in Sept-Oct. IF you buy one just make sure it is a Rev II pump.
 
5.75LPM is 345LPH

The pump is rated at 350LPH at 12v (its maximum flow), so that's pretty accurate.
Anyone have any articles on how much flowrate really matters if the pumps have the same amount of head?

The MCP650 is only rated at 10' of head, but gets a maximum of 1200LPH while the MCP350 gets 13' of head & 350LPH.

Read This post then.

The MCP350/Laing DDC has both more flow (in a loop where it would count except in a low resitance system like a Maze4) and more head than the two CSP750s in series.
The AQX 50Z would be the best overall pick for performance of all the pumps mentioned (in a loop it flows about the same as a D4 but adds half the heat to the loop)

What he said

csp750 = nothing but failure
