I think you're taking the correct approach in not trying to convert long-running characters -- I think that's doomed to disappointment.
As for MRQ, the "Dara Happa Stirs" supplement seemed more like a HeroQuest supplement to me, in terms of its epic scope. I don't know if MRQ scales better than BRP (I'm not familiar with MRQ) -- IMO HQ handles characters over "90%" a lot better.
Given the difference in goals and styles of HQ and BRP, I think the best approach would be to treat Sartar as a source of NPCs and stories, and come up with appropriate stats that would provide a similar level of challenge for your group.
