Way back when Fred Britweisser built a plenum with a water cooled IC
inside it.  Seemed like a neat idea and he liked it.

His WWW page was at:

http://www.xephic.dynip.com/

but I haven't been able to connect to it.  He did have a lot of cool
stuff there, including pictures of a Buick V6 that briefly made 800 hp
on a dyno before it exploded.
