Use a broken H80i's pump/block

Hi everyone, I have an old H80i that has a failed pump (makes annoying clicking noise), i've teared the whole cooler apart and flushed it, since it's been sitting around doing nothing I thought I'd use the radiator, the tubing and the block, add a pump from something like a car, a reservoir and turn this thing into a custom loop

 

My question is will the pump/block combo work without the corsair pump running ? What about the water flow, will the external water pump run into problems with the tight tubing of the H80i since I believe an AIO is designed for low water flow  ?

Well it would all depend on the pump used. But as long as the pump is similar spec wise and properly fitted you should have similar results.

The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane.
