It's been done and it is socket-7, solder?

Winchip are totally no-solder straight swap for P54C single voltage
boards. Drop a pentium 200 or 180 in (not mmx ones) in place of
winchip. But the clock rate is still at 60mhz gives 180, you'll have
to find a way to get it going for 66mhz FSB.

I gather you've got to change a couple of the surface mount resistors.

Hmm, actually I just might be able to pull this hack off.... Not sure I
want to risk the thing to my soldering abilities though.
