Going from 2.4 to 2.66 is simple and should not require any voltage adjustments. Might as well make it 300 FSB for an even 2.7 gig. Heck, 333 FSB (3 gig) is not hard, although it's possible you might need to bump up vcore one notch.

These are my exact same settings/results for my E6600.

I booted stock once to make sure it worked alright, then went straight to 3ghz to see if it posted at stock volts. I didn't know it at the time, but it can do a lot more than that.
