Take a look at section 6.7 of the manual for precedence rules, and
section 6.1 (under the heading "Prefix and infix symbols") for the
list of symbols.  In short, this is the list of all the available
infix symbols, in order of precedence:

!... ?... ~...                          prefix
**...                                   right
*... /... %...                          left
+... -...                               left
@... ^...                               right
=... <... >... |... &... $... %...      left

This means that you might have some trouble with your infix levels,
but there are normally ways to organize things for what you'd like.  I
find, also, that having just a few levels and using parenthesis for
the rest of the time can work quite well.  As you note, using this
style for everything can be painful, but having infixes for only a few
specific things can help immensely.
