That would work better than most blocks on the market, depending on a few modifications and getting the base-plate thickness correct. I would suggest 1.5-2mm.

Cut the fins to be no more than 4mm high. Reduce the number of fins to just 20mm wide at best (unless you want to cool a peltier - in which case make them as wide as your peltier).

That'd get you a block that'd be better than most but still misses out on impingement action that would take it a bit further.

Micro-channels = good
Impingement = good
Micro-channels + impingement = better (best??)
