I'm using a similar setup, but I opened the Innovatec, and it's just one solid plate of copper.
Take a drill or a dremel and make a flow path.
After I did this, it was working just as good (flow wise) as my D-Tec Z chipset block.

How large of a path do you recommend? I pondered making grooves/inverse fins when I opened the blocks up and saw how tight of a fit they were.
I built a jig for my moto tool that allows it to be lowered down sort of like a chop saw. I figure I can clamp the copper plate down to the jig and grind a series of closely spaced grooves into the copper. What is the best kind of dremel disc for cutting into copper? I tried the rig out on a scrap of aluminum barstock, and the reinforced steel cut-off wheel I had on it bogged down A LOT because there was little room to clear chips. I figure copper will behave similarly, especially when I need to cut in about 1/4". Advice on this?
