Any electronic supply store will carry an array of heat sink. Should mention that I don't mean visions or best buy I mean MRO electronics.

To find them that big I think your going to have to purchase online. I got mine from HeatSinkUSA , best price I could find, and they have plenty of patterns that you can have made to any length. They also publish heat dissipation numbers, so if you are a real nerd like me you can calculate the expected temperature of your herat sink : )

thanks all for replies. I have been looking online, the shipping cost is as much as the heatsink even at heatsinkusa, so I will look into a few electronic supply stores first. thanks again.
