230+ I would say is possible if using 285 cams as they can give up to 40bhp, throttle bodies with a DTA, why not? QED can spec over 300 depending on pocket depth. But then who would actually spend that much?

No idea mate, but if going throttle bodies and DTA why stick with 270's? However I did say 'if' fitted with 285's

I think the carriers need machining out to clear the lobes of 285's. Quite common when going that far, had to do this on my Audi many moons ago.

just a little update
well the engine is out to fit all the aux stuff, new bracket being made for the alternator this has moved to where the air-con pump was it wound not fit where it was so had to be moved and the power steering pump off and an electric one added this also was in the way so all new pipe work made up for that as well,small red top battery and the tray moved so the air box can be fitted (this has not been made up yet) some other little bits and bobs done but thats about it
