Mine is about as ghetto or redneck as it gets. Partially made of stuff from Wal-Mart of all places to get parts for a WC setup but it's working at least. So far, no probs running it that way and the system keeps things cool.

I do have my res mounted higher than the rest of the system on purpose since the MCP655 vario's don't like dry starts and that actually primes the system before I ever turn it on. Yes, the pump I'm running is about the best you'll get for the price range and it's very quiet, handles the load nicely and doesn't dump alot of heat into the loop.
