The CUD has once again sunken it's fangs into my eyeballs, and a change is coming. So for the chemical engineers or people who know more about galvanic corrosion than I do; what can I expect in terms of corrosion when introducing Stainless Steel (Grade 304 or 316) with Copper, typically found in waterblocks/radiators (Being nickel plated or not). Also faced with brass fittings. There will be an anti-corrosive liquid in the mix.

From the research I've done it seems like something I won't have to worry about, but I do know that anytime mixing metals corrosion is something to consider.

Any help will be appreciated, thanks guys :)
