i fogot who but someplace makes 540 size (fp size) heatsinks with fan mount on it for rc. and the fan is im pretty sure the muffinfan size.
a heatsink itself wont work the best. itll cool faster but it wont help keep it cool.
so at the worst blow your exhaust air from the cylinders into the heatsinks. this is a very useful way of recycling too. we've been doing this in OCCRA (since we dont use fans to cool motors there) with great results. even without a heatsink.
