A Takky Upgrade is to fit a logicboard of a PowerPC into the Apple Color Classic. It gives you much more Power than the original components.

So, I'm going about this in a slightly different way. I'm not going to takky a Colo(u)r Classic, but an Performa/LC 550. 57x logic boards are so sought after and scavved that if I'm going to juice up my abominable Rustic Rat, I may as well go upmarket, so to squeak.
So where I'm confused first in this guide is the motherboard/harness chart.
- So the harness doesn't matter? What matters the most is which logic board you're going with?
- The notes say "For this board its not worth to build a Takky" which I take to mean, "you may as well go PowerPC," yes? I.e. if I wanted an 040 Mac vs the 030 original, it's not really more work to go all the way to a PPC board?
- Subnote: if I really did want to go with a 580/630 board, would the harness need modification regardless?
- With the (most likely) differences between the CC and the 550, is the 3.3V regulator still necessary? I'm assuming it would be for the boards indicating the need, but I don't know what's supplied on the 550 vs the CC, how much more robust the PSU is, if the AB has different tolerances, etc..
