I dunno.
I like to think that if you're going to restore something, then you keep it original, and use OEM NOS parts. It needs to be period correct. I don't necessairly think that it needs to be entirely torn down and repaired to "new" specs, just good working order.
Returning something to "as new" specs to me would be called remanufacturing... and with that you can do as you wish, alter, upgrade, etc. That's not calling it restored.
In the end, you do whatever makes you happy. If somebody's going to crap about that, they've got too much time on their hands.
