There is no "it". Every single CPU has different headroom for overclocking. Many won't overclock at all, others can run at twice the speed. Keep in mind that even with the best cooling, however, overclocking always reduces the lifetime of the CPU. Given how rare and expensive 68060s are, I would recomment getting a Vampire or PiStorm instead if all you care about is maximum speed. We should not fry valuable CPUs for fun...

What do you mean? If you get 80 MIPS at 50 MHz, you get 110 MIPS at 66 MHz... MIPS is raw CPU power and scales linearly therefore, as already written.
