Did some digging on Google and found these Alpha heat sinks that work with the fan reversed (the manufacturer actually recommends this and they work better with the fan reversed than with the fan in the normal orientation).

http://tinyurl.com/ure6 for the Alpha PAL8045 Athlon/Duron heatsink.
http://tinyurl.com/urdz for Alpha PAL8942 Intel Socket 478 heatsink.

The Induction performance refers to the normal blow air into the heat sink method; Expulsion refers to sucking air up through the heat sink with the fan reversed.

The Alpha PAL8942 review here http://tinyurl.com/urdw ranks it at the top of the socket 478 heatsinks they've tested.
