going to want to get these too http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/bi14nptog14s.html
Will also need these to connect the tee to the fitting http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/big14sididug.html

It should be possible though

With the adapter and a compression on mine, it comes just to the end of the block on gts 260

I have some posted in the gallery here (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=202620&page=33). Its post number 806.

I have a parallel run done with the CPU and GPU. I don't recommend it because I haven't seen any major temp differences.

I'm not running SLI though. It should be possible to do with that block though, just need some extra fittings to do it.

I would get some D-plugs (http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/bishg14sidse.html) instead of those. Those are designed for the 1 slot blocks. I'm certain the would still work, but D-plugs would be better IMHO.

I got ya. If you got that much room, hust run them in series and loop a piece of tube down. You will have enough room to do it with do kinks. It will be cheaper, and i think it may look better too, then trying to use a bunch of fittings.

I think the best way to do it is go in one side, then out the other side (input/output doesn't matter on that block), then on the bottom block, get both the adapter and extender with a regular 45 fitting, run that up to the same side on the top card, into just an adapter and barb/compression fitting (I don't think you will need another 45, but can try if you want). The output would be same side as input on bottom.
