Using Portfolio items as product “features”

Hey guys,
I am currently using Portfolio items as the “features” section for our product. I like that there is a pre-built carousel for the home page, a pre-built portfolio page, and I like the sort by category and left right arrows on each portfolio item. That part is good.

The issue is that my “features” pages have much more text than images (they aren’t really portfolios), and I am trying to create a standard portfolio page layout using PageBuilder, but the standard Portfolio templates are getting in the way — even though they are basically blank.

Also, I would like the breadcrumbs to be site/features/feature1, not site/portfolio/feature.

What would be easier?

1. Work out how to lay out my portfolio pages the way I want, working around the portfolio settings (if that is even possible). And fix breadcrumbs.

2. Convert my “features” portfolio postings (there are 10 of them) into standard pages, and then re-work how to add the things I like about portfolios (the home page carousel with opaque rollover, portfolio page layout, sort by type on the portfolio page, navigation arrows on each post, etc.)

Option one seems easier, if I can re-work the basic portfolio post layout. But I don’t know.
