AFAIK, it's just not possible to do this with an Apple 2 family machine.
The video generation is too closely tied with the system clock.

Just wish the clock speed were better. Freaking
Apple.
I remember a lot of people doing homebrew mods back in the late 1980s to
boost the clock speed by soldering in a new crystal to overclock it. You
had to be careful because if you didn't cool it properly you'd burn out
the CPU (and possibly other components).
