Where do you get the new clock oscilator things you need to overclock these machines? Also I've seen page after page on the internet about doing this hack, but does anyone have any PICs of it, so I know exactly what I'm really doing?

Instead of oscillator overclocking (the 6100 is normally stable till approx. 80 MHz) you should try to get a cheap G3 processor upgrade. It would speed up the machine noticeable...

Well the oscilator is much cheaper than a used G3 card, and this really isnt a computer i use for anything, its jsut something to do. If I could get a real good deal one one of those G4 upgrades I'd go for it, but the last time I saw one of those on ebay, it went for a LOT of money!

The oscillator has 4 pins on it and it is pretty easy to change out. If you don't want to modify the main board, you can actually piggyback the oscillator on top of the existing one.
