Assuming you will be running a 64-bit Calibre, you can convert these books. I converted two of the largest ones (Dickens, most text, and Baum, largest file) without problems, on a 6,5 year old computer with 8GB RAM. (It has had 8GB since it was built, as it i my photo editing PC.)
You will also need a somewhat recent version of Calibre. Somewhere along the road a bug was fixed that prevented extremely large books like the Delphi Classics from converting.
