Is there a Socket 370 to Slot 1 Adapter?

I am thinking of replacing my Abit Be6-2 and 866mhz Coppermine with a Asus CUSL-2 i815E motherboard.

Thing is, my coppermine is slot 1 but the Asus CUSL-2 is Socket 370.

I know Slot1 --> Socket 370 exist, but I can't find any which do Socket 370 --> Slot 1.

Do these exist?

If they do can someone drop me a link?

Thanks for your help 🙂
 
Physically it would be difficult to realise since it would be difficult to stabilise, and keep from moving about. The added height can cause problems in some cramped cases, and it may be blocked by larger capacitors surrounding the Socket. It would look quite silly anyway.
 

The answer to your question is: No.

BTW, I'm not sure there would be that much benefit to making the change you're proposing if your system is running stably at 866/133 MHz. And it certainly wouldn't seem a good move to replace your CPU and mobo just for a different chipset. If you can't run the 866 at 133 MHz FSB then that's another story, but you're still in a bind since all 815/815E mobos will probably be Socket 370.
