I'm thinking about combining my 2 loops into one. Both of my D5's have an EK top with a res connected to the inlet. Can I run the outlet of the first pump into the res attached to the second pump without any loss of head pressure?

I am doing the same, and it appears that you will need about 4" between the two pumps. Just my 2 cents.Quote:

Oh, and a little off topic, but I am running a d-tek Fuzion V1, DD MPC Chipset block, Koolance GTX 295 block (dual pcb) with a PA120.3 and MCR220. Throwing in a few koolance VL3N quick disconnects won't be a problem with flow, right?
Ditch one of the reservoirs, no need for two, otherwise it should be fine.
I wanted to do all of this with the least amount of work possible and leave everything basically where it is. Would I need to ditch the second res?Quote:

Run both serial with a dual top for the d5s, basically plays out as1 pump but really your getting the gains of 2 pumps, any reservoir will do :up:Quote:
