I don't know about the difference in thermal conductivity, but for this bit you might want to consider getting the heatsink good and hot in an oven. Do it slowly and let it get to an even temperature right through.
Also consider that the dissimilar metals will expand and contract at different rates, and it might just crack itself free after a few cycles of heating and cooling.
