I want to use the whatif feature to determine the amount for conversion from Traditional to Roth IRA. What line do I enter it on?

I use TT Premier.  I'll repeat this exercise when the 2017 edition comes out, but I want to get a ballpark now.  My purpose is to bring my tax liability up to $7500 to be able to take the Federal ITC for a plug-in vehicle.

This is not about reconversion or backdoor conversion.

what-if doesn't have 1040 line 15a, which I think is where it belongs.  Can I just test the conversion amount as ordinary income?

Thanks in advance.
