First, you have a nice OC as is, so be happy there... but to go higher, cooling considerations will be critical. You may also need better RAM as the bus gets higher... and the higher the bus, the higher the PCI clock (anything over 40 pushed the cards and they can and often do fail)... there are a lot of variables to be taken into consideration. If you're using the stock intel hsf, you may want to consider investing in some better cooling first.

Well i'll see what i can do.

What problems are you having now when you try to raise your FSB any higher?
Have you disabled sideband in registry?
you may have to set your memory at cas 3 and or turn down some of your memory options in BIOS do not worry you will not loose any bandwidth because the extra FSB will make up for it. Quality Ram is important when trying to get a good overclock but there are a few work arounds. with a little more info we should be able to get a little more out of your CPU.

goodluck
