New (UN)Designs Pump Bracket

You cant attach this to a D4 our D5's stock mounting bracket?
What are the dimensions of the Z-Brackets bolt pattern? I measured the stock bolt pattern on my D5 and its 1 5/8" apart.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean but I think your asking if this mounts directly to the pump and the answer is no. This is a adapter to allow you to use any of my other brackets on a 120mm fan. Here's some pics to help you understand what I mean.

Just as a suggestion you may want to offer a standoff kit to reduce noise induced by fanblade turbulence when mounting on the intake side of the fan, and and it would also decrease airflow resistance.

I will take it into consideration if there's enough demand for it. I did play with different size standoffs to see if there was any difference and I didn't hear any audible turbulence from the fan. One of the criteria when I made this was that there would be no audible increase in fan noise.The first one was right on the fan but I decided to go against this because it did create a little turbulence and I didn't want to block the fan too much. Thanks for the suggestion.

Just in case of confusion I was referring to standoffs on the corners, not in the center where they already are. I cant see in the picture but are there already spacers on the corners?

I'm sure if anyone objected then they could just spend a few bucks and order some from McMaster-Carr.

Oh i see. What i meant was if i could attach the stock mounting bracket from the D5 directly to the Z-Bracket. I guess not, but didnt i see you do that in a build of yours our of your friends build?

You probably could use it with a different bracket but you would have to modify it. I made this so I would never have to use the stock bracket again!

I might just do that. Having it mounted over the bottom fan intake would really help with my build. Thanks Dave!
