I ordered the separator kit at the same time I ordered the CM30, so I guess I subconsciously was thinking along the right lines. I did think it was odd and inefficient to utilize a high-pressure cooling system that carries higher temperatures to begin with such as the engine's coolant system.

I'm glad that I ordered the CM30 now that I am reading feedback from users who have run the pump without issues, especially after separating the two circuits.

Cheers!
