So what has been the best integration for Dirty Deeds so far? Just as a radio track?

So not to sound stupid, but if I replace, say, "War Machine" with "Shoot To Thrill", AND replace "Hell Ain't A Bad Place To Be" with "Dirty Deeds"...
1) What happens if the new sound file is LONGER in duration than the original?
2) If SHORTER in duration?
3) Does this only affect the attract-radio and game jukebox mode/song select? Or are there specific short song clip excerpts that arise during the game that pull from the whole-song file? In other words, in the above example, would the game pull a small section "thinking" it was sampling a specific part of the War Machine file, but instead "accidentally" sample a random section from Shoot To Thrill, creating a nonsensical sound effect?
4) Can one change radio mode of a song without affecting the music in the game? (At least besides by replacing any of the live tracks until live mode is programmed by Stern)
5) Can one change the text announcing the game modes to the changed songs?
6) So I would have to convert my mp3s into mono 24kHz bitrate wav files for this to work? (Using Audacity?)
7) Can I change the free game hiccup sound?
Quoted from Arcade:I am more than happy to share my Bin file in a drop box if someone is interested just to hear what can be done.
I have changed the following songs. But have not yet learned how to change the graphic on the DMD. I am going to work on that next. Here are the three songs I changed and what I changed them to.
War Machine is now Girls Got Rhythm.
Let there be Rock is now Shoot to Thrill.
Hell ain't a Bad Place to be is now Dirty Deeds.
I also need to find a way to start with slightly louder original sound files. These are close to the same volume but could stand to be just bit louder. Overall I am quite happy with my new song choices. The cool thing about changing Let there be Rock is that now when a game is over the machine plays Shoot to thrill.
Hadn't thought about the game over theme... That is cool, but I just associate LetThereBeRock too much with ACDC (and it reminds me of Spinal Tap's "Rock and Roll Creation.")
...hmmmm SPINAL TAP....
... Definitely have to think about this.
"Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You Tonight."
"Stonehenge."
"Big Bottoms."
"Sex Farm."
"Gimme Some Money."
"Heavy Duty."
And, of course, "Hell Hole."
I don't know the album, "Break Like The Wind," but there HAS to be some good cuts there.
And I would think some clever use of sound clips ("Hello, Cleveland!"; "Lick My Love Pump"; "These Go To Eleven"; "You Can't Dust For Vomit"; "It's Such A Fine Line Between Stupid And Clever"; "I used to say Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll. As long as there's sex and drugs, I can do without the rock and roll.") would work here.
I HAVE to figure this out....
Oh, how does one change text?
