I've shimmed the drop-in with some aluminium from a coke can which is the best I can do for now until I get some copper sheet ordered. Hopefully that will manage to help with the heat dissipation for now, although I don't plan on driving it too hard/long.
That's what I did, well, I shimmed the torch. I also applied some thermal compound to the torch before placing the shim in place. The applied a small amount of thermal compound around the dropin. The whole torch heats up when its set to high for a long period, so It must be working.

Took 2 layers to get a snug fit. Copper would be even better i'd imagine.
