If you're going for maximum power out of a relatively stock head and block, go with a later model 6076 rather than the 6466. I don't know what all changes were made, but they seem to stand up to high horsepower applications better - especially when it comes to head gasket sealing. If I were you, I would look for something like a 4955 engine, as it will have about the best set-up for going into another tractor. Combine engines tend to have some different arrangement for some items like the exhaust manifold and turbocharger (it's mounted at the rear of the engine). A tractor engine like the earlier 55 series will also have a good pump with no electronic governor like you'll find in a combine and such. A 6076 out of a 4955 etc should be pretty much a bolt-in into your 4230 as far as basic components go, but you'll have some issues with clearing the turbocharger and so on. Horsepower shouldn't be much of a problem. I've seen 4955s and 4960s pull in the neighborhood of 250 horsepower pretty easily, with a stock everything. I should think that a guy would be able to get 400 or so pretty easily. Anything above that, and you're probably going to get into spending the big bucks. Another option that may be possible would be swapping in a 6081 (496 cubic inches) crank for more stroke, but I'm not sure how easily this can be done, and it may not be worth it to gain only 30 cubic inches. This sounds like an interesting project, so email me if you want to discuss it further.
