I am working on a -54 rectifier board out of my Bally Flash Gordon. I have order a parts kit to replace the BRs, diodes, etc. from Big Daddy's. The kit comes with a small heat sink that i am wondering about.

The original mounting uses the large aluminum mounting plate as the heat sink, with the BRs on the bottom of the board as shown on Steve Kulpa's site. Should I put the BRs back in their original location and if so, what is the included heat sink used for? Or should I move them to the top of the board and add heat sinks?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
