using the heat sink might not be that bad of an idea. most of the designs of the water blocks i've looked at so far. have always have 2 things. 1. the inlets and outlets on the top(witch does make sense) 2. a flat smooth surface on the top. now if we were to make a water block with the two outlets on either side of the moded heat sink, and the inlet on the other side you could still have 1. enough room for a fan on top of the heat sink(altough im not sure what good that would do because of the liquid cooling) and two have the design of heat sink still play in a roll in cooling the heat that still radiates up from the Heatsink/water block.

while words are good, drawings are 1000 times better, i'll draw up this concept in cad to give you guys a better idea. remeber this is just a atempt.
