[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] PC crystal

I have an original IBM PC (model 5150 I believe) which I am using as
a spare when I don't have access to my 80286.  Lately I have been attempting
to rejuvenate it so that it is somewhat more modern.  I've replaced
the BIOS and added additional memory (up to 640K).  Last night I replaced
the 8088 with a V20.  I was now thinking of replacing the crystal with
a faster one.  Is this "doable", and if so, does anyone know where a
faster clock crystal can be obtained?  Thanks for any help provided.
