1/400 sec. for Realist

 I have had to repair Realist cameras twice and am semi-familiar with the
shutter and timming gears. I have been wondering if the 1/150 sec speed can
be modified or hotroded up to 1/400 sec.? I noticed that changing of
shutter speeds entails turning a cam arangement to select different springs
etc. Since 1/150 is not much faster than 1/100 maybe the 1/150 cam
selection could be used as the place for the modification,( maybee a
stronger spring). Has anyone tried such a similar type mod?
