 we do to get 220-230, then you are talking about 270-280 in the 951 
 engine.  To get 400+ hp out of that thing with about 350 or so at the 
 wheels is pretty simple, the volumetric efficiency of the engine is just 
 phenominal imo.

    I think this might be the third or fourth time we have beat this topic to 
death!  Whoever wants to do this conversion...do it.  It obviously would be a 
better motor in the long run, after the hassle of the conversion.  Powerhaus 
in AZ gets 375hp out of the 2.7 liter stroker motor, definitely out of the 
range of the normal MC.  There are going to be a lot more problems to 
overcome to convert this, but if you want to do it, start figuring it out 
because no one on the list has done it yet, and if you think it would be a 
good conversion then...?     ;)
