Wow... I've never managed to get my 060 on my BPPC past 60Mhz, even with a fan attached to it if i stick a 64Mhz crystal in all I get Is a yellow screen... :(
 
(never attempted to overclock the PPC side though, not sure if it can be done and don't fancy knackering nearly 500 quids worth of kit...)
I'm not overclocking the original CPU's.
I'm doing an upgrade: removing old 040 or 060 CPU and installing completely new CPU which can be overclock up to 120MHz. Unfortunately 120MHz is waaaaaay too much for Blizzard PPC - that is why 060 clock is set to 72MHz.
 
The same for PPC: I do not overclock existing CPU - I'm removing old CPU and installing new PPC CPU rated by Motorola to work with 300MHz, but working at 330MHz without any problems.
All this info is describen in the auction.

I think he's just trying to keep fools like me from jacking up their BPPCs and frying them.

Exactly.
I saw too many turbo boards where users wanted to overclock the cards. Result was a disaster (only some pictures):

That is why i highlited that I'm not overclocking, I'm upgrading.

As you can see it's worth to say something louder from time to time. :)

Well, I did not checked this with oscilloscope, but I'm 95% sure that it's 060 oscillator. And it is working @72MHz without any problem. Checked with 3 different SCSI HDD's.
