As for the ESC and the motor, do you suggest I hook them up to the cooling flow in parallel or in serial? If serial, I'd put the motor first so that the ESC gets the warmer water -- it has an overheating failsafe.
Water cooling should go to the esc first then the motor. Make sure that the cooling line to the motor goes to the low side of the water jacket and out the high side for best cooling. Do it in 'series', don't use y fittings and split the flow.
