Yep Seem the Conrad Heat sinks works out cheaper than the Modu case involves more work thou
The Conrad sinks are around £70 a pair plus shipping cheapest is by seafraight 10/12 weeks not to bad if you are not in a hurry for the sinks
so under £100 a pair for MF35-100@ 0.28 C.Watts
I also see searching the net that many favour the bigger MF35-151 @0.21 C.watts for the F5
I guess if the amp sounds better running hot the smaller MF35-100@ 0.28 C.Watts would be the better choice as long as it will still allows for the current to be tweaked up if it's required to do so

Not sure if that's a benefit or not, all I know is the current reduces when FET's get hot.

The amp sounds very average when cold. YMMV.
There is a cheaper version of the case with 4mm front and without the alu top and back
