LC_575

I just installed a 40 MHz oscillator in my PB1400, replacing the original 33.333 MHz one, as seen here: http://home.comcast.net/~gionpeters/hhhh/pb1400.htm
The oscillator, while difficult to solder in (solder points are fragile), seems to be working properly. However, I don't really observe any great increase in speed (Keep in mind that the CPU is running at 200 MHz) - in fact, It almost seems slower than it was. Also, the Apple System Profiler says that the 603ev is running at 167 MHz, however that may just be a recorded value and not a measured one.
Where should I go next? And does anyone have any good benchmarking tools (like MacBench) that I could use?
