On our robot we had a fp motor getting rather toasty so we took the stock heatsink from a students quadcore processor and easily modified it to slide over the motor with a fan mounted on it, it works quite nicely

they also sell performance RC heatsinks for 600 size motors such as the fp motor. with fans for about $20
