Sometimes Apple used the very same CPUs and MBs on different speed rated machines, the difference being the resistors on the MB. It might be possible to 'overclock' the 867 board but you have to be good at soldering on a circuit board and know exactly what you're doing. Perhaps a replacement MB would be the safest way to go.
