A Little Disappointed with the T-180 v3 water inlet/outlet setup
I've used dozens of the v1 & v2 T-180's for FE30 P-Sport builds. They hold up, are fairly water resistant, and with a little modding of the water inlets & outlets they could be narrowed with 90 deg. fittings to squeeze the batteries in alongside for proper cg. :

When I saw pictures of the v3 I was happy to think that there now can be a less fiddly (yes I watch Top Gear) mod to keep the waterlines tucked in. I was disappointed when I saw this :

While it looked from the pictures that there was three possible water paths to give some configuration options, the caps (kinda tiny and no extra caps like v2) block 2 of the three possible flow-through channels. In fact to get the return line back towards the motor I'll have to change the output straight barb fitting to a 90 deg and that won't tuck in too nicely .Going to be tough to use on riggers & OPC's too...
edit : spoke too soon ; this bump on the inputs contains 2 caps
