not being very computer literate i had to get my daughter in law to post these ,and as photo bucket wouldnt allow me to post any pics she used this way , sorry, next time she is over i will ask her to post some more. i didnt realise what a big job going to water cooled would involve , and woulnt recomend it to any 1 , having said that ive started so i will finish, some day lol. cheers for the interest guys. its so much easier to post pics on facebook , so if you add me on there u will be able to see lots more, andy green,
