[Elecraft] K1 VFO Range Question

[Steve KS1G]

Hi! I've had an early (S/N) K1 since mid-2001; bought it already built from
the original owner, has 80kHz bandwidth.  Am I correct I just need to change
C2 and re-peak the filter board to widen the range?  Is tacking another cap
in parallel practical?  I'm also considering just re-aligning the VFO
coverage to hit, say 7.030 or so and up, as my cw speed can't keep up with
the faster ops below 7.025 or 14.025 anyway.   Either way, any gotchas to
look out for before I start disassembling a working rig to "fix" something
that may not need fixing?  I assume I have to remove the antenna tuner and
2-band filter board before I can work on the VFO.
