A few years ago, I used dosdude’s “patcher” to install 10.13 on a pretty old MacBook Pro that couldn’t run it. It’s been working really well. I think “OpenCore” might the more modern version of this. Worth a look?

This looks super interesting https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/
Also wow people are upgrading iMac CPUs
https://lowendmac.com/2018/penryn-t9300-9500-cpu-upgrades-for-the-2007-imac/
I do miss the days of swappable parts especially the soldered ram is such a ripoff just for a few mm of thinness that I don’t need
