Line drive and Gap Power to Homeruns

Jack,
Have you done any detailed analysis of mechanics on big leaguers that have gone from line drive and gap power to homerun power? Who come to mind are:
Luis Gonzales Arizona Diamondbacks
Rafael Palmeiro Texas Rangers (early in his career)

If so what did you notice. If not, what do you think contributed to their power surge.
