Bell 47 Soloy Turbine experience anyone?

Does anyone have any pearls of wisdom WRT the Soloy turbine conversion of a Bell 47?

What does it give? Suggestions so far include improved reliability and reduced cost per hour.

Is it a waste of money?

Is anyone operating such a machine in the UK?

If one was to embark on such a project - would it be sensible to pick up a "re-build project" and go from there?

TIA
