I've got an Ebuyer cheap & nasty socket A heatsink (rated for 1GHz
Athlon) on a 225MHz IDT winchip in my router/firewall box. The clip
seemed to fit perfectly. You probably want to find a heatsink with a
flat surface covering the entire underside, as opposed to one with just
a small square to fit the chip on an Athlon/Duron. Socket A heatsinks
have a ridge at one edge, so this won't make full contact with the
entire body of the chip, but for a K6-2 this probably isn't a problem.
