Never thought my first case-mod, first water cooling, and first cable sleeving, would be so much homework and a slight headache, hahaha!
 
The 360 rad no longer the 420mm/16.5inchs length and less 50mm/2inches deep, I found one 420 rad that read 400mm length?
 
Feedback on roads that will fit this build?

    The photon rad/pump is more for aesthetics than anything. What are you trying to achieve, how many pieces of hardware are going into your loop?

    I run the pump setup in my 820 build, I like it and works good. Pumps tri-sli plus cpu and 360 240 rads just fine. I also like the thick XSpc rads.

    I really like the HW labs radiators and the Nemesis 360GTS will fit your size needs. Dimensions of this rad are: Width: 133 mmHeight: 398 mm Thickness: 29.6 mm
    http://hardwarelabs.com/nemesis/nemesis-products/nemesis-gts/nemesis-360gts#dimensions
     
    XSPC also has the EX line of radiators that fit those dimensions like the EX360 .....121 x 35.5 x 395mm (WxDxH)
    http://www.frozencpu.com/products/14328/ex-rad-316/XSPC_EX360_Triple_120mm_Low_Profile_Split_Fin_Radiator.html
     
    Alphacool 360XT45 also fits Dimensions (LxWxH):400x124x46mm
    http://www.alphacool.com/product_info.php/info/p973_Alphacool-NexXxoS-XT45-Full-Copper-360mm.html
     
    As far as 420 radiators? 
     
    The  Alphacool NexXxos will barely fit that space at Dimensions (LxWxH): 400 x 144 x 30 mm
    http://www.performance-pcs.com/alphacool-nexxxos-st30-full-copper-420mm.html#Specifications
     
     How wide is the space up top for this radiator? Anyway, I hope this gives you a few alternatives that might work.
