    Did you use any quick disconnects or something? Would hate to have to work on the computer AND lug that huge radiator around with it.

    Very nicely done. I used to use a smaller car rad bolted onto the side of my case and it worked well passively. I got it cheap on Ebay brand new and it was all copper/brass also. Yours is nice too in that you have no transmission cooler like most car rads do. I moved to an all internal setup however for a more compact setup.

    It really isn't that hard to find copper car radiators. You have to look around a bit for one designed for an older car.

    Awesome temps. I'm glad you painted it and made it look all nice. Good temps don't mean much to me if the setup looks bad. A big to you!

    Most maintenance and hardware swaps I can do without moving the case. But I added a T valve to one of the lines so I can just crack it open and drain the system. Then the hoses can be disconnected and the rig moved.
