I know this was addressed for Adam but I have been having a similar
problem. I have a Power Computing PowerCenter Pro (originally 210 MHz
604e) upgraded to a 390 MHz G3 via an XLR8 accelerator card.

Mine states:
DEC frequency: 14 MHz, 140:10 mticks/usec

If by booting you mean MOL, I'm using newworld (Mac OS ROM file).
Mac OS 8.6
Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
