Combines an approximately 16 MHz 68030 and optional 68882 on a compact MicroMac Performer remix made for a Macintosh Plus clone.

The only documented Revision 2 installation is in a Macintosh Plus clone. The author expects an original Apple Macintosh Plus to work but asks users to report results, so stock hardware remains unverified. Installation requires desoldering and socketing the 68000, PLD choice is important, and some software may have distorted audio.

Adds a 16 MHz 68030 to a Macintosh Plus with a compact hobbyist-buildable board derived from the MicroMac Performer.

This build requires a PGA 68030, five programmed 16V8 devices, and soldering a socket on top of the Macintosh Plus 68000. The maker does not recommend the System 7.0 GemStart driver, reports garbled or intermittent audio, and warns builders to watch the first SIMM's clearance.
