Nope.

Doesn't the sonnet come with a pad on top of the processor which aids in
heat transfer to the heat sink ?

If not then you might want to think about carefully moving the one from a
117 across, the ones on the 133 and 166 don't lend themselves to being
moved.

Would a new heat sink also be needed for a Sonnet upgraded 1400c?

The instructions made no mention of it, but I have read somewhere in this
list about someone having to peel one off the old processor card and put it
on their sonnet card.

Yes, we made the mistake of not putting a new heat sink in when we upgraded
the first time-cooked it!
Trying again now but was an expensive error.
