Thanks, for finding that. Also, I have some heavy duty velcro. I'll try the right angle first.

This will also LOWER your "T" fitting area where the drain is, and will look much better IMHO.
When I order the right angle, I'm going to order the some EK High Flow "Stubby" Fittings (G 1/4 Thread - 1/2" Barb), because the 2 fittings I have almost touch.

Also, did you "HOG" out the case screw holes on the front? I see 1 where it is so big, that it broke thru the metal??.....
Yes , I'm going to attach some bolts to the inside of the case so that I can use the hex bolts as thumb screws. Although it would have been nice not to have done it to begin with.

Also, what are you planning to do with the wiring for the back? Some people thing these are easy to build, but there not. Really takes some time to get the wiring neat and organized, PLUS, all the internal wiring is 100% made by me, I cut the wiring off the pump and make my own harness for that, plus all the other items. Lots of time is in the wiring its self, then paint, then making my case compatible with the internals. When I get a case from my machine shop, it is RUFF to say the least LOL!!
I plan on running most of the wiring under the radiator. The fans in the picture are not the fans I'm using. I have 3 Yate Loon fans from Performance PC with black mesh sleeving, as well as, some additional custom cables with the same sleeving and heatshrink so that I can hide them along the wall. For the wires for the 4" lights and the pump, I bought some black mesh sleeving that I plan to cover the wires with and then cut to length. I haven't quite figured out how I want to send the cables through the case, but that's part of the fun. You've done a great job designing the case, I can tell alot of thought went into the layout. Right now I'm just dry fitting everything in the case, but I'll post some pics of the finished results. Thanks!
