Hehe, yap, priming in this configuration takes some creativity. Submerging the pump in the bath is the easiest route. But if you can't/don't have a submersible, you can backfill the line and clamp it.

So, if you're config goes: Chiller bath >>>>>>>> pump >>>>>>>>>>> cpu
then you remove the intake from teh block and backfill the line all the way to the Chiller bath using a funnel. Then you take a clamp and pinch off the line. Attach intake back onto block, turn on pump and un-clamp tube at the same time to get the coolant running thru the loop till its all good.
