I do socket the cpu and flash the firmware.
I have to admit that your BPPC could be a problem...
I have only upgraded BPPC:s with 2 oscillators but im willing to check your card and if im getting stuck you only pay the shipping costs.
A 50Mhz oscillator that you have onboard is ok for a 68060 clocked at 50Mhz so it should be no problem, i think.

Adding a second oscillator for overclocking the 68060 cpu, again i have to admit that i dont have the knowledge if this can be done.

What other 040 boards are upgradeable to 060?

Im sorry, but i only have the knowledge and parts to upgrade A1200 accelerator cards.
Maybe someone else here knows?

I have a dead Apollo 1240.
The cooling fan became detached from the heatsink and I guess the CPU overheated and died.
Do you think this board could be revived with an 060 upgrade?

Yes, i think there is a good chance that the card will work again if the cpu is replaced.
I would recommend that you solder in a cpu socket and try with a cheap 040 cpu first.
If you want you could also send the card to me and let me try to repair it and (if you want) upgrade it.
It cost you only the shipping costs if i cant fix the card.
