Plug into the CPU socket?
I think plugging into the CPU socket (and possibly the 6522 socket would
be the norm. ProfessionalDOS (a parallel speeder I own) does the same
thing.
Assuming that stuff was even socketed, of course, as there was _no_
consistency with regard to that in all the c= stuff I worked on. And we sold
a lot of sockets to people, that got put in as a part of the troubleshooting
process.
The one speedup I installed was a replacement ROM, that went in by way of an
adapter (more pins).
