What do you mean exactly?

The aluminium part is not important at all for the heat distribution. And two parts were necessary to create the connection between all 4 chambers.

edit: Btw there is some sealing mass between the two parts so there won't be any leaking issues if you were thinking about that

Yes that was the point, if the liquid comes in contact with the secondary peice it has to be considered a weakness ?
Or does the liquid not come in contact with it ? .... but from the pics the design counts on contact with that bottom piece. I dig how the channels distribute the liquid evenly and I understand that a two peice desing is the only way to achieve this. I do think it is a superior design as opposed to a straight bore, but again, what does seal this are you living on an O ring ??? and if so what is the life expectancy of said O ring and is there a number of replacments that come with if in fact you are using an O ring, Ultimantly reguardles of the sealant used a failure will ocure with out maintaing this two piece design.
