Heh, Nice!

That last pic almost looks like a Chrome Fuzion with red coolant. :slobber:

Curious as to how well the AC/RAD combo worked, I always wanted to make a chiller but the noise and size put me off.

And hey, If hurricane Dean went a little farther north a few days ago, You could have put your radiator on a 10m pole and suspended it in the 150Mph winds! I just did the math... That's 4,500 CFM! :shocked:

Hmmm, looks nice to me, especially the rad in front of your window! :D but why a 8500? you better but a 8600 or if you have more money to spend an 8800

i works fine...the ac hitting the rad works very well , lows my temps almost 10c less at stock speed...dean passed very close...more rain then wind around here :p:
