@ orcinus: your idea for aluminum foil sounds like the better way to go. I know from computer modding that the less thermal grease, the better. It's really designed to fill in the really small voids, and in larger quantities it behaves more like an insulator. Best method should me more like add a thin layer of thermal grease to the cartridge, wrap in aluminum foil to bring it up to a slip fit, apply another thin layer of thermal grease.
