Project LED
This is the start of my build thread for replacing my 3 400w MHs with 3 LEDs fixtures. - $180.07 shipped
To start the heatsinks:
I ended up getting 3 10.080 x 14" Heatsinks from heatsinkusa.com
I am also documenting the build here: http://www.saltgeek.com/projects/ledlighting.htm

Eric, would 2 sinks that size work over the 150?

I may need Lenses for the XP-Gs but I have to find some that will work with it. Rapidled did not think I will need any.
